Abrahamson won the Miss New Jersey Teen USA 2001 title in a state pageant held in late 2000. She represented New Jersey in the Miss Teen USA 2001 pageant held in South Padre Island, Texas in August 2001, but did not place. The pageant was won by Marissa Whitley of Missouri.

In October 2006, Abrahamson competed in the Miss New Jersey USA 2007 pageant for the first time and placed first runner-up. On January 15, 2007 she replaced former Miss New Jersey USA 2007, Ashley Harder who resigned after finding out she is expecting a child in late summer.[1]

She has become the eleventh former Miss Teen USA delegate to hold a Miss USA 2007 state title, breaking the record of ten former teens set in 1999 and 2003. She was the third Miss Teen USA 2001 delegate to compete at Miss USA 2007, the others being Erin O'Kelley of North Carolina and Gloria Almonte of New York, who placed first runner-up at Miss Teen USA 2001.

Abrahamson is a Montclair State University student studying towards a Bachelor’s degree in elementary education.
