Jupiter's new Playboy Playmate Shanna McLaughlin

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. - She grew up in Jupiter, went to Palm Beach Gardens High School and is a University of Central Florida graduate.

On June 18th the world will know who she is.

Shanna Marie McLaughlin will be "Playboy" magazine's "Miss July", "Playmate" of the Month.

This comes shortly after she won the popular "Playboy" channel's reality series, "Playboy Shootout".

She hopes the recognition will open doors for a profitable career.

"I think it's going to be a huge platform to work with Playboy and all the working opportunities that are going to be available to me," said McLauglin.

"And then, hopefully, it will lead to different movie roles or hosting positions and stuff like that."

In between her new stardom, McLaughlin says she is working on her Master's degree from Central Florida.
