Her win was generally regarded as an upset (she wasn't considered a front-runner and had previously gone unplaced at the Miss Teen USA pageant) and she beat press favorites such as Miss Tennessee USA Morgan Tandy High (the eventual 1st runner-up) and Miss California USA Angelique Breaux (the 2nd runner-up and later American representative at the Miss World pageant, where she was a semifinalist).
Pressler was the second Miss USA not to place at Miss Universe in the history of the pageant, where her preliminary performance was generally regarded as poor and too conservative. She did however manage to place 19th in the preliminaries.
Pressler went on to pursue a career in television and is currently set to host the new NBC show Adrenaline X in the Fall of 2006.
