Jarensky represented New York in the Miss USA 2005 pageant held in Baltimore, Maryland in April 2005. She placed in the top ten of the nationally televised pageant, which was the first placement by a delegate from New York since 2002. Jarensky's Graecan-inspired gown was given a lot of attention during the pageant, because of its styling, which was highly unusual for a pageant gown. During the top 10 swimsuit competition, Jarensky almost tripped and fell on the cloth of Miss California USA, Brittany Hogan who accidentally dropped it. Prior to the pageant, Jarensky appeared on a special Miss USA episode of Fear Factor with five other Miss USA 2005 delegates, finishing in second place.
On July 10, 2010, Jarensky won the Mrs. New York America 2010 pageant under her then married name, Meaghan Castaldi. She competed in the Mrs. America 2010 pageant, which was held in September 2010 in Tucson, Arizona. She won the Whimsical Costume award.
Education
Jarensky is a graduate of Absegami High School, has earned a BA from Pace University, holds a certificate from the Institute of Integrative Nutrition, is certified by the American Association of Drugless Practitioners as a Holistic Health Counselor, holds multiple certifications in yoga and meditation, and is currently pursuing a Masters in Non-Profit Leadership at Fordham University.
Legislation
In December 2014 she was impersonated on match.com, and subpoenaed the website for the perpetrator's identity. She used this experience to draft a bill along with New York State Senator Kevin Parker, calling for passage of New York State Senate Bill S5871-A, the E-ImPersonation Prevention Act. This would create an anti-cyberbullying law which would criminalize online impersonation with the intent to harm.
Current
Jarensky has a master's degree in Non-Profit Leadership from Fordham University, is the Manager of the State Titleholder for the Miss New York USA organization, is a Director of the Brett Barakett Foundation, and is the Executive Director of One Girl Inc.
