Ashlee Greenwell (born 1988) is a beauty queen from Middletown, Delaware who has competed in the Miss USA pageant.

Greenwell won the Miss Delaware USA 2006 title in a state pageant held in late 2005. This was her first attempt at the Miss title, however she placed 2nd runner-up in the Miss Delaware Teen USA 2005 pageant in 2004.[1] Greenwell, one of the youngest pageant winners in more than a decade, suffered from substantial hearing loss as a child.[2] She was crowned by outgoing titleholder Sheena Benton.

Prior to competing in the Miss USA pageant, Greenwell appeared on a special edition of Deal or No Deal along with twenty-five other Miss USA 2006 state titleholders.

Greenwell represented Delaware in the Miss USA 2006 pageant broadcast live from Baltimore, Maryland on April 21, 2006, where she was one of only two eighteen-year-olds in the competition. Greenwell attempted to become the first delegate from Delaware to place in the pageant, but was unsuccessful. The event was won by Tara Conner of Kentucky.

Greenwell graduated from Middletown High School in 2005 and is currently pursuing a degree in Biological Sciences from the University of Delaware which she expects to complete in 2009. She graduated in the top ten percent of her high school class and was a member of National Honor Society throughout her years of school. She hopes to become a dentist.[3]

Greenwell has volunteered for a number of non-profit organizations, logging over 400 hours of community services with such organisations as the Salvation Army, Habitat for Humanity, Special Olympics, Delaware Humane Society, and the Ronald McDonald House.

Greenwell's hobbies and interests include scrapbooking, shopping, drawing, cheerleading, running and boating.
