Comment: I would have thought a state winner would naturally have sufficient coverage that this would be a slam dunk keep on notability. Amazingly, Jessica has since become a medical doctor. Every search I have thought of performing has not turned up any sources reflecting significant notability. Normally I would side with a delete reasoning, but I have a sense that I simply am not searching correctly. —

It seems she got her MD as Jessica Carlson, so no, traditionally she couldn't change her name. However I found some instances of DMDs and MDs changing their name (formerly not possible). —
