join this competition because she wanted to overcome some of her issues.
With hope to accept herself and overcome fearing public
speaking,
“I hope to inspire those young people who also have the same
challenges as me”

She grew up in a very supportive family that always
encouraged her to be in beauty pageant,
“because of my body shape, because of them, I knew I wanted
to see myself in the modelling industry” she said.

about personal achievement,
but it is also about representing her community and serving
as a role model for young girls who look up to her as a source of inspiration,

finals is a testament to her newfound self-confidence.
