Good morning, and thank you for joining me for the scoop with Tanya Flanagan. I'm so happy you decided to wake up and start your day with me here on the scoop, where we talk about life, joy, funny moments, trending topics, and so much more. We promise to keep you in the know and find out what you know. So, let's get started, I Good morning, good morning, Las Vegas, and welcome to another edition of the show, The Scoop, me, Tonya Flanagan, right here on 91.5k U N V Jazz and More. I'm delighted to have you tune in this Sunday morning, and I would be remiss if I don't say happy Juneteenth to the city. We just celebrated Juneteenth. It was the celebration of Juneteenth weekend. There were activities and programs going on all over the valley. Hope you took some time to participate. I know it's hot outside, but it's never too hot to get out and pay tribute to aspects of the history of our great country, and everyone has done their part to contribute to where we are, who we are, who we should be, and who we should be aspiring to become as individuals and as a country in whole, and so there were activities in Henderson at Sampson Aparc, and so this morning, just excited to say happy Juneteenth to you, and hope you enjoyed the weekend, but also to have the conversation that I'm having, talking about the sense of trailblazing and people who do amazing and unexpected things, and I have no idea what it takes to be in a pageant, but we're going to be talking a little bit this year this morning about competition, and I'm excited to welcome to the studio, my friend, who I've gotten to know over the years, Nina Bailey.

Nina Bailey 2:06
Yes, thank you so much for having me. Thank you for being here

Tanya Flanagan 2:09
this morning. Nina Bailey is Miss Nevada Corporate America.

Nina Bailey 2:15
Yes, ma'am.

Tanya Flanagan 2:16
And until I saw her, and yes, she is wearing the sash in the studio, so she is always on to see someone come in the morning with a crown on. I'm like, did you wake up like that? But ever on message, and it's also, I believe you have a background in communications, or so we're gonna, so we're gonna get into public relations, we are what she's done, who she is, but for those of you who do not know her, she is beautiful rock star who is our Miss Nevada 2026 corporate America, and I did not know there was such a thing until she began to promote it, so I have to say it's something that I didn't even know existed, but since you have been crowned and take us through the timeline of how this works, you have brought a great amount of attention to a space and a role, and I think pageants are becoming more at the forefront because you're starting to see mrs. Nevada this, mrs. Nevada, that Miss Juneteenth, like all these different pageant titles, so are you? Where do you hail from it? And what, and motivated you, and inspired you to compete in this space? A

Nina Bailey 3:32
great question. There's a lot of great questions. I'm

Tanya Flanagan 3:36
super curious about this story. Yeah, I

Nina Bailey 3:39
am. My one of my mentors is Alicia Taylor,

Tanya Flanagan 3:42
okay?

Nina Bailey 3:42
And she's an ambassador for the organization, and so she hadn't.. she posted about it on on her Facebook page at the time, and I literally was just like, 'Oh, that sounds great, was moving on, right? Like, I'm commenting on my friend, hey, love that, you know? And then she hit me up behind the scenes and was like, "Oh, so are you interested in doing it? And I was like, "Oh no, girl, I don't like people looking at me like that. Like, I, ooh, I'm really.. it seems like I'm incredibly outgoing. I am really shy.

Tanya Flanagan 4:16
I would have never described you as shy, and I've known you for several years, 10 or more years, that would have never have been you're always so bubbly, so bright, so energetic, so engaging. I would have never described you as

Nina Bailey 4:31
people. Maybe I shouldn't say shy, I think reserved, maybe is a better word for that, since we are in communications college, right? I would say that I'm probably more reserved. I like to be known more for my work than just because I'm gorgeous. Okay, back to folks. Did you wake up like

Tanya Flanagan 4:55
that? She's over there. A beautiful woman, in addition to being, but Miss Corporate America doesn't bring to mind that it's a beauty pageant. It is nice, so it doesn't make you think, while you are, you know, I variate your compliment. I'll give credit where credit is due, not to send it to someone more on my show, and I didn't think so. I, what would I.. the pickle, the bag, God bless. Okay, so you see, Nina and I are friends. Corporate America doesn't make me think of a beauty pageant where there's swimming suits, and

Nina Bailey 5:31
I don't have to do that part,

Tanya Flanagan 5:32
right? So,

Nina Bailey 5:32
with the Miss Corporate America competition, because they would prefer it be referred to as that, it is based on your record in leadership or in business, so you have to have a minimum of five years in the space, as either in corporate, entrepreneurship, military, or nonprofit management, so that's first, and then, of course, whatever your service record is, you still have to have a platform, like any pageant requires that you have a platform that you're advocating for, and then you, you go and you compete. So, I don't wear a swimsuit, but I do have to do the gown portion. As with anything, you have to know how to present yourself and have the decorum and the presence and the poise to be able to represent a brand, because that's what you're doing when you become the national title holder. You are then going around the country advocating for not only your platform but also carrying that brand with you, so I think sometimes pageants get a bit of a bad rap because they think, oh, she's just pretty and there's no substance there, but my social media managers had to get one of those, so one of my good friends was like, I had no idea the amount of work you have to do. Yeah, this is not easy. You are literally at all of these different events, you're learning, you're having to publicly speak about what you're doing when you're doing fundraising. It's like I'm campaigning.

Tanya Flanagan 6:52
Wow, I am sure I want to get into your platform, but before we do, I want to ask you, what has been the most fun part of it, and what has been the most challenging part.

Nina Bailey 7:03
The fun part is getting as much as I do not like winning, that I do like winning, but I think the fun part is the way the children look at me, because I work with a few different agents with that work at New York Life and Summerlin, so they do a kids in suits event twice a month, and that is teaching financial literacy skills to kids as young as five years old and up to 18. Yeah, it's really neat, because they're learning what return on investment means, and just all these different practices, and how to deal with money to buy the fun things that they want at the end of their session, and so they're asking me all kinds of questions, and you know, how long are you going to be queen, and how did you get your crown? Is the crown heavy? What time of day were you born? And I was just like, it's like those TV

Tanya Flanagan 7:51
shows where kids will ask you to darn to sing. It is

Nina Bailey 7:54
literally that,

Tanya Flanagan 7:54
and they, because there's no filter, and they are so honest and transparent,

Nina Bailey 7:58
they are.

Tanya Flanagan 7:59
So that's the most, one of the most fun things about it. What do you find is most challenging?

Nina Bailey 8:04
I thought I had good time management skills, and then, and I did up until

Tanya Flanagan 8:09
this,

Nina Bailey 8:10
because this adds a different component to my life on a daily basis. The all of the events that are happening around the city, you know, the Urban Chamber, Black Girl Magic, the Rotary Club, whatever it is. If there's an opportunity to be there and to make new relationships, then I'm probably there. And so, on top of what I do for a living,

Tanya Flanagan 8:33
which is

Nina Bailey 8:34
I actually am a social impact investor, is how I title it. I buy property and then repurpose it to support nonprofits and the local municipalities to be able to keep people, keep Nevadans housed. So, my company is Milestone Living.

Tanya Flanagan 8:51
I didn't, I don't think I knew that.

Nina Bailey 8:53
Yeah,

Tanya Flanagan 8:54
I think, because on the surface, when, when, when you don't know what you don't know, and you meet you, you get the impression that you're in real estate, I

Nina Bailey 9:01
am.

Tanya Flanagan 9:02
Yes, but a real estate agent, that you are selling homes to new families, relocating families, upgrading families, but not that you're buying property, repurposing property, and making it available to nonprofits to house unhomed people.

Nina Bailey 9:18
Yes,

Tanya Flanagan 9:18
that is a calling. So it makes me want to ask, does your platform in the role of corporate, Miss Corporate America, tie into the passion that you.. because clearly that's a space of passion.

Nina Bailey 9:30
Yeah, I hadn't really told a lot of people about this. It has been this year that has really unveiled all of that, but in 2021 so let me start over. I will say this. I am a real estate broker. I'm also a licensed mortgage lending specialist, so we buy, sell, I can finance it, all of that. I do some commercial lending as well. So some of my clients are all over the country, and they're buying large scale properties. We closed one for 134 acres in New York earlier this year, like so it can. Be literally anything. I have been in this space my entire adult life, minus the time I was at UNLV and the time that I was in grad school. So, for at least 2520 something. Thank you, girl. Good genetics. Thank you, Mom. If you are listening, girl, I love you for this, but I started thinking, or actually, I was working with one of my sorority sisters, and she wanted to do housing, like independent living housing, for kids aging out of foster care, and she actually called me to help her find a place to rent, and I was like, "Oh girl, if you want to rent from somebody, we need to rent from me, because I need to buy my place, and I wanted to figure out what I was going to do. I knew I wanted to invest, and that was how we transitioned into the space. And then that is its own awakening, because I didn't buy just like one little house and put a bunch of people in it. I bought a fourplex, so that was its own animal, and I learned the hard way, like, girl, we needed a different kind of plan for this. This is not a one at a time kind of a thing, like everything has to be done at one time. So, the renovating and the vendors and the subcontractors and the all of that, it was quite the experience for a first time home buyer. So, I live in my property, and then I use the units to work with agencies such as, like, Hope Link, just one project, Safeness, like all of them, City of Las Vegas, City of North Las Vegas. So we, given our current political climate, when money started getting funny for the nonprofits, I had to start also looking at last year, start looking at who else can we help, and I'd been working for about a year and a half to secure a relationship with the Department of Corrections, and it happened at the end of last year. Well, not the end, but towards Q of last year. And then we started working with those that are being released from the correctional facilities and reentering back into society. So that's why I say I'm a social impact investor, because all of our housing really looks to help other people in first before its profit is going to be there, but how can we use the spaces to really accommodate their ability to thrive?

Tanya Flanagan 12:11
I really like the thoughtfulness and the consciousness of this, especially in a time when housing is not scarce, but housing is on a taint unattained. We're into this new space of not even affordable housing, we're in this new term of attainable housing, right? Because we drifted so far, and who would have ever thought that in the valley growth is good, but who would have ever thought we would be a place where houses would be priced at $800,000 an $800,000 home is really like your second home, you know, the move up, it's the move up home, and a lot of people who might have thought they were starting don't even see the vision of how to get to the move up home, because right,

Nina Bailey 12:56
it's right, it

Tanya Flanagan 12:56
seems so out of reach, so to have a program where you're consciously thinking I want to help those who need a leg up, who need a help, need help with the first step back into society. That's a really tremendous program, and so, and you tied that into your corporate Miss Nevada, corporate America. Yes, I take it.

Nina Bailey 13:17
My platform is Impact First, and Impact stands for infrastructure mindset partnerships access capacity and transformation.

Tanya Flanagan 13:27
I saw that on your flyer recently, and I thought that is really, really nice. I wondered who thought of that, but with your public relations background, it was probably, yeah, it was

Nina Bailey 13:36
me and AI. We went back and forth for a while and tried to give me some letters, I was like, I don't like those, this is what I'm thinking, and it was like, but this I was like, this is what we're doing. So,

Tanya Flanagan 13:46
how long have you been Miss Nevada? I have been Miss

Nina Bailey 13:50
Nevada since April, I guess it was technically the end of March, but definitively publicly it was april 1.

Tanya Flanagan 13:57
So, this is super new.

Nina Bailey 13:58
It was, I was Miss North Las Vegas for two and a half months before that.

Tanya Flanagan 14:02
Okay, so when did you do, mr. Why did I not? I think I recall, maybe that's it. Maybe I feel like every time I've seen you of late, there was a sash.

Nina Bailey 14:11
Yes, and

Tanya Flanagan 14:12
maybe I didn't realize the sash. I've been

Nina Bailey 14:14
like changing sashes was

Tanya Flanagan 14:15
changing. Yeah, I hope that is progression is wonderful. So, congratulations. Thank you on progression. So, well, we know what brought you into Miss Corporate America, but you were Miss North Las Vegas.

Nina Bailey 14:27
I was so,

Tanya Flanagan 14:28
and that preceded this. It did. So, did that have anything to do with Alicia Taylor? Or, well, yes, the

Nina Bailey 14:33
start was the start. If she had never called me, I would not have even forgot it.

Tanya Flanagan 14:37
So, this goes back to being the same starting point, if you will. Okay,

Nina Bailey 14:42
so and I think you had asked me to, like, where am I from. So, a part of this whole being Ms. Corporate America, I'm from Fresno, California. I have been in Vegas now for 21 years. So, Vegas is home. I credit this entire place for growing me into a woman, because I came here. As a young 20 something, and just from a country town, or so I thought it's still country. It's great. Do

Tanya Flanagan 15:07
people really think of Fresno as country? It

Nina Bailey 15:09
is down. Listen

Tanya Flanagan 15:10
close to, isn't it close to like, is it? It's the middle.

Nina Bailey 15:14
It is literally the middle, like if my whole body is

Tanya Flanagan 15:17
San Jose, kind of close,

Nina Bailey 15:19
two and a half hours north, and LA is about three hours south, so it is smack in the middle, like if there weren't the Sierra Nevadas, you could just drive straight there from here. It would take less time to do that, because it's closer to here than it is anywhere else when you look at it on a map. So, but at any rate, I am from there, and I came here, I was working in the mortgage industry at the time, I've literally, like I said, I've been working in this industry my whole entire life, and shout out to Diana Bryson Dykes, because she lives here, she is my mortgage godmother, she's how I entered the industry at all, and gave me an opportunity, exposed me to finance, because a lot of times in our communities we don't really talk about financial literacy at the table, we do, but we don't make it plain, and what I mean by that is my mother cut down the grocery list and sent one of my sisters on one side, and you go pick up this and everything, bring it back to the basket, like you learn to do the mechanics of it, but you don't know why you're being tasked, tasked to do the thing until you move out. If you move out, because some people are staying at home longer.

Tanya Flanagan 16:26
Well, that is the situation now, as we talk about affordability and access. People, young people who graduate college just don't have the resources to even plan to move out of mom and dad's when they would normally move out of mom and dad's, and that's really frightening to face that period in life where you go through college and you're trying to work toward your independence, and it's just just right there in some ways, but just out of reach,

Nina Bailey 16:55
especially if you have student loans,

Tanya Flanagan 16:56
just right there, but just out of reach, right, yeah, and so that's definitely another conversation, right? It's a converse, it's something that should be being discussed in the community, and I think financial literacy is huge.

Nina Bailey 17:10
It is, and we're

Tanya Flanagan 17:11
just in a period where so much is happening in the country that if it's not waking you up, it should be shocking you into focus.

Nina Bailey 17:19
Yeah,

Tanya Flanagan 17:20
to look at every aspect of life,

Nina Bailey 17:24
right, because you need to affect you to plan for those things. So, when I was doing my grad school program, I worked for a builder in VR Homes, and they built the most fantastic, because it was DC, so you know they're all about their townhouses, and then, as far as you get a little further away, then there's the actual houses, and I mean they were 800,000 It was truly the move up when you were in like certain parts of Loudoun County, and you're just like, this is spectacular. I didn't even know you could. Now I'm from here, so spectacular here is Blue Heron, who I used to work for before I went there. So my version of this is Desert Contemporary, phenomenal,

Tanya Flanagan 18:01
phenomenal,

Nina Bailey 18:01
right. And then I went there, and I was just like, "Oh, this is, give

Tanya Flanagan 18:05
them a plug for free, but they are

Nina Bailey 18:07
right. Well, they're my dream, that is my dream home. And I

Tanya Flanagan 18:11
brothers too, but

Nina Bailey 18:12
I like them, buddy.

Tanya Flanagan 18:13
But again, on a different situation, circumstances, right? I like houses that are amazing and beautiful. So you say beautiful,

Nina Bailey 18:19
but when I was living there, there were a lot of people that were grad, their kids were graduating from dentistry, and just all of these professional programs, but they couldn't afford to buy anything, and their parents, who are in, like, the baby boomer generation of sorts, they're coming in and saying, you know, I'm just gonna buy them their first townhouse, my kid and his wife, they just got married, he just graduated, she just graduated, and this is my gift to them. And I thought, Jesus, I was born in the wrong family. This is the case, like the number of parents that were just coming in, buying

Tanya Flanagan 18:50
everyone can't do that though for their children,

Nina Bailey 18:52
but I'm just saying, but

Tanya Flanagan 18:54
it is nice when you, I mean,

Nina Bailey 18:56
to experience people doing it. It was just,

Tanya Flanagan 18:59
there is opportunity, right? But it goes back to, and now we're drifting into because corporate America's missing about a corporate America is about corporate conversations, it's about financial conversations, about life. There is the time in the moment where, if you're having the literacy conversation, yes, you begin to talk about the value of the dollar, managing the dollar, investing absolutely economy economies of scale businesses trends. Yes, and I think the more people invest time in learning and having these conversations, the better we will all be for, but usually, as like, because you said, as a people, African American people, minorities and generating general, are you know, and sometimes everyone's a little bit behind the curve. It's not exclusive to minority populations. No, it's a struggle to something that anyone can find themselves dealing with, due to a lack of either access,

Nina Bailey 19:54
yes,

Tanya Flanagan 19:55
education,

Nina Bailey 19:56
right, socioeconomic thing, and by. I mean, I grew up, it were what was it, it's like lower, middle, and upper, and then the divisions between each one of those classes. I would say that we were probably on the lower end of the middle class, right? And it is highly different when I go to, when you go to school, coming to UNLV, you're meeting people from all over the world, and you're now a big fish, no, you're a small fish in a very big pond now, because everyone is equally as talented as you when they arrive here, but then from leaving from here and going to George Washington, where you were in DC, and that is a completely, completely

Tanya Flanagan 20:33
different cultural space,

Nina Bailey 20:35
because

Tanya Flanagan 20:36
the awareness level

Nina Bailey 20:37
is so heightened, and it's heightened at 18, they are all coming with I want to be in political science. I'm planning to work on the hill, like every.. I'm coming in as a graduate student, and I learned real quick. I felt like I was behind the curve, and I thought I had gained enough advantages by the time I had went, because I was in my 30s at that point. So, I'd worked, you know, I'd experienced.. how did it feel to be in your 30s to arrive somewhere and feel like people who were younger than you maybe had either more lived experiences or financially well off, for certain

Tanya Flanagan 21:09
they were more financially stable than you at a younger age than you, and they had a different mindset about how they wanted to tackle life, but you knew you would end up at the same finish line.

Nina Bailey 21:21
I think it was interesting. It was tough, because you think you're, you think that you're advanced, right? You're again that whole sort of, when you're leaving someplace, you are the big fish in a small pond, and you get somewhere else, and you're like, oh, not at all. And the reality of it was that I was ill-prepared in a very expensive place. It was a really expensive lesson, not just the monetary part that you're, you know, using financial aid to go to school. I mean, it's an expensive lesson, because you're still paying rent, and you're having.. how.. I, the apartment that I had, by the way, when I left here, I was paying $800 in a two-bedroom townhouse, that was a single story by the Orleans. It was beautiful, not too close to, like, down the street and around the corner from New Orleans, but still. And then, when I went to DC, my one-bedroom with a fake second bedroom, because it didn't have a closet, so it wasn't constituted as a second bedroom. It was called a den, but it's a bedroom, and it was $1,800 in what we are calling attainable housing, there is called workforce, so as a, an eight, it was an affordable dwelling unit, because that's the term we all know, but there it was listed as an affordable, as a workforce development unit, meaning that you had to section 42 so you had to income qualify, and then the voucher stayed with the unit, it did not go with you if you moved out,

Tanya Flanagan 22:46
so that's the difference. Okay, so it turned over

Nina Bailey 22:49
right to

Tanya Flanagan 22:50
whomever the next person was that came in to benefit from this,

Nina Bailey 22:52
correct? How do I phrase that category,

Tanya Flanagan 22:55
if you will? Yes, because housing,

Nina Bailey 22:57
yes. So what happens is that there are, and people do it different ways in different in states, even when you're buying housing, developers get an incentive to be able to build the same floor plan, but they don't put all the beautiful upgrades in it, right, to make it affordable for a person that's maybe a first-time home buyer. Same thing applies with apartment units, and so Las Vegas had not had to do that, and now we're in a place where we're exploring it, right? Right, but that was my first taste of it. I'm from California, originally, as I explained. So, California always had it, just my whole growing up life. We knew that living is just astronauts, it is right. And so to get to do that in DC, it was an experience, because I never saw myself in that place, but now I'm a full-time student, so I'm living off of my student loans to try to get through my program as quickly as possible and get back to Las Vegas. And so,

Tanya Flanagan 23:51
did the cost make you not want to live? Because I remember living in California on one of my internships while I was in college, and I was young, so there was a part of me there from 26 to 30. It was like, oh, it'd be so fun to live in, you know, LA, right? But there was a part of me that also recognized the cost of living, being at the time from Arizona, and not ever thinking I would live here long term, and having friends who it took a great deal of their life to get a house, and then it was just to get a normal, quaint, cute, two-bedroom, one-bathroom. The kitchen, small house, right? Even going to Baldwin Hills, and view was gorgeous. The kitchen was like the size of a powder room, somebody's house, right? Right, but the view was amazing. House was a fortune. It was Baldwin Hills.

Nina Bailey 24:43
Yes. No, I loved DC. I loved seeing the sheer number of African American people in a concentrated area, because I'd never seen.. I'm from California, and then I moved here. I've never seen that.

Tanya Flanagan 24:53
Yeah, it's like shock effect. I don't think I even experienced it in Atlanta the same way as I did when I went to. In Washington to visit for spring break, and it was just to,

Nina Bailey 25:05
you're like,

Tanya Flanagan 25:06
it was, it was, and I grew up in, you know, a black neighborhood, right? So my neighbors were all black, everybody was black, basically.

Nina Bailey 25:16
I had never experienced that, that was amazing. It

Tanya Flanagan 25:19
was commerce, right? It was business, it was education, it was everything. DC has this amazing effect on you, if you've never.. the South will remind you of where you've come from to where you need going, right? DC is like this whole.. I can only imagine what it must have been like to come from South to North generations ago,

Nina Bailey 25:40
right.

Tanya Flanagan 25:41
We're getting into the last three minutes of the show, and I don't like to rush allowing people to know how they can keep up with you, or learn more about you, or even communicate to say, "Hey, I'd love to consider, you know, competition or learn more about corporate America, mrs. Corp, mrs. Labad, Corporate America. So, social handles ways to learn,

Nina Bailey 26:03
I am the multi, I'm sorry, it's at Multi Family Maven on all platforms, so TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, because that is my specialty in housing, is getting people into multifamily housing first before you buy the single family, so you can afford it, and then I'm on LinkedIn, so I'm Nina Bailey on LinkedIn. It won't be hard to see me, because I'm probably in a sash and crown in my profile picture. Everywhere you see me right now, it is Sash and Crown season, and if I bring the crown home to Nevada, it'll be Sash and Crown season for a whole nother year through the next through next summer, through June of next year, or yeah, June of next year, provided I win, which I leave in a week. I leave next Wednesday,

Tanya Flanagan 26:48
so the competition's where

Nina Bailey 26:50
it'll be in Orlando, Florida, the 25th through the 27th I leave on the 24th and I'll come back on the 29th just to give myself a day.

Tanya Flanagan 26:57
We will be rooting for you. Yeah, I will be rooting for you, I'm super excited to know that you've done this, and to know you personally, to know someone else, because I have one other, Trina Marie,

Nina Bailey 27:08
oh yes, Marie

Tanya Flanagan 27:09
Benezi Shaw, who's been on the show as well, is the title holder, she is, and so it is exciting to see young and beautiful, gorgeous African American women, especially as we wrap up Juneteenth weekend, and having had the pleasure of attending the Public Education Foundation's Black Girl Magic luncheon on Thursday, it was just phenomenal this week, and so just to have some time with you and let other people meet you and hear what you're doing and giving up, give them an opportunity to learn more about it. You're so complex, that is true. It's one of those things that is super nice to find out the different components, right? Make up who you are.

Nina Bailey 27:52
Thank you. I appreciate that. I, we always

Tanya Flanagan 27:54
have, because we're Euro Zeta, I'm an AKA, and so, yeah, you know, we're more in a social space with our conversations, but this has been, which is

Nina Bailey 28:02
nice. I do enjoy that side of it, because then when we start to dig in to, like, oh, what are you doing, and how are you doing it, then it is surprising. It's like peeling back an onion,
