About Tracii Black
Ugandan-born American • Healthcare Advocate • Miss America Delegate
Tracii Black is a Ugandan-born American public figure, healthcare advocate, and Miss America delegate. After immigrating to the United States at a young age, Tracii navigated the American education system independently, experiencing both personal setbacks and profound growth.
Through her journey, she discovered a passion for service, storytelling, and empowering women. Tracii currently works as a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) while pursuing her Registered Nursing (RN) degree to gain hands-on clinical skills and advance her career in healthcare.
Today, Tracii actively serves within the Miss America Organization, using her platform to advocate for women’s health, education, and self-worth through digital media, public speaking, and community service.
The Journey
Born in Uganda and raised in the United States, Tracii’s journey has been shaped by resilience, independence, and self-discovery. Navigating life as an immigrant, she learned early how to adapt, rebuild, and find strength through adversity.
Her path led her into healthcare, where she now works as a Certified Nursing Assistant while pursuing her Registered Nursing degree. Alongside her medical career, Tracii discovered a deeper calling — to use her story to advocate for women navigating identity, healing, and purpose.
Miss America represents the next chapter of that journey: leadership, service, and using her voice to create real-world impact.
