World Class Beauty Queens Magazine: Please tell us about yourself.
I am currently in high school and a honors student, in my youth I always looked up to beauty queens and always told myself I wanted to be just like them, which has lead me to where I am now. And finally, after this part of my life I want to be a business owner and study to become a lawyer.
World Class Beauty Queens Magazine: What does women Empowerment means to you?
Women Empowerment to me means to encourage women and show them that they are capable of everything they put their minds to. It means to help them look in the mirror and be proud of the reflection. It means to help women let go of any negativity there carry with themselves. That is what Women Empowerment means to me.
World Class Beauty Queens Magazine: Tell us about your pageant history.
This is my first pageant but as a kid I always watched pageants on tv and was amazed by the beauty queens. My dream of being a pageant queen has motivated me to start it and get as far as I have and do everything I can to win the crown.
World Class Beauty Queens Magazine: What inspired you to do your first pageant?
What inspired me to do my first pageant was every year watching Miss Universe and seeing how beautiful every contestant was. But I wasn't just inspired by their beauty but by the way they were all so confident and had the courage to present themselves in front of so many people and be so fearless. From there on out I dreamed of getting the opportunity to be just like them and now i'm doing the same by inspiring younger girls as I was once inspired.
World Class Beauty Queens Magazine: Why did you choose to compete for your current title?
I chose to compete for my title because I saw the opportunity to fulfill my dream and took it. I knew that although I didn't have much experience there wouldn't be anyone as dedicated and passionate about it as myself. That is also something I want to show women, that although you may not know how, you can accomplish anything you set your mind to if you're dedicated and passionate about that subject.
World Class Beauty Queens Magazine: To those unfamiliar with your pageant system please tell us what is it about?
Pageantry is about how young women use their platform to encourage other women and speak out about important topics. It a way to give young women a voice and a responsibility to make our world a better place.
World Class Beauty Queens Magazine: Tell us about your platform or what cause do you volunteer for.
My platform is Empower-her and I work with women of all ages and teach them self empowerment and help them achieve their personal goals by helping them set up a plan and by giving them opportunities to accomplish their goals.
World Class Beauty Queens Magazine: What appearances have you done with your title?
I have gone to multiple parades, I have gone to many business openings like "A+ Accounting and Premium Realty" , And finally i have been at multiple festivals like the "Miami Food Festival and The Latinos de Cape Coral Festival".
World Class Beauty Queens Magazine: What are some of your achievements?
A few of my achievements are successfully starting my own cookies business and surpassing my goal of cookies sold. I have went to states for the Florida HOSA competition and was first place at regional level. I have been advanced in school for my entire middle to high school career. And I was apart of the LIA program at my school to embrace my hispanic culture throughout my school.
World Class Beauty Queens Magazine: What is your on stage strategy to win the judges over?
My on-stage strategy to win over the judges is to truly connect with them and create a good banter with them to show how charismatic I am and how easy it is to talk to me.
World Class Beauty Queens Magazine: What makes you stand out from all those other beautiful girls?
What makes me stand out from all my beautiful contestants is my charisma and my ability to connect with a crowd. Making every person around me feel heard and special is something i’m very good at and it’s one of my best qualities. I also think it’s important to have this trait because when you are surrounded by many people it’s important to make sure to connect with every interaction even if you don’t have a full conversation with someone.
World Class Beauty Queens Magazine: Tell us about the moment your name was called out as the winner.
As being an assigned queen I already knew my name was going to be called and although I knew I was being called hearing my name was such a surreal moment and a one in a lifetime feeling, so much so I hadn’t processed what was happening but once I did I felt a strong sense of honor for being able to represent my country and my cuban heritage.
World Class Beauty Queens Magazine: What does it mean to you to be a Beauty Queen?
To be a beauty queen it means much more than wearing just a crown. It means being a role model who represents confidence, kindness, intelligence, and purpose. It means to inspire others, give back to her community, and show that real beauty comes from character, resilience, and the impact you make in people’s lives.
World Class Beauty Queens Magazine: How did competing in pageants helped your life?
Pageants have helped me grow in my confidence and self worth which was something that I had suffered with for a while and once I started pageantry my confidence started improving as-well as my self worth that has got me into where I am today.
World Class Beauty Queens Magazine: How did pageants helped your selfesteem and body image?
They helped me tremendously because throughout the preparation process it has required a lot of self love and confidence to achieve my goal and i’ve also learned that although I may not have the best body I do have a healthy body and I use myself as a example that you may not need to be the curviest to be beautiful.
World Class Beauty Queens Magazine: You are an inspiration to all the girls out there. How does it feel?
Its a great honor because as beauty queens you have the platform to encourage girls and become a inspiration for their future selves and it’s a huge responsibility that inspires you to become a better version of yourself for them.
World Class Beauty Queens Magazine: What are your tips for learning better pageant walk?
My biggest tip would have to be to practice every day until you can’t anymore and to be consistent because it is the inly thing that will truly help your walk have a great change.
World Class Beauty Queens Magazine: What are your tips for choosing right pageant dress?
I think its best to just believe in your gut and to pick the dress that you love not just like because you can tell when a girl feels confident with her dress rather than just liking it.
World Class Beauty Queens Magazine: What are your tips for winning interview?
My tips for interviews is to visualize your answers with bullet points and organize your thoughts so they come out uniform and understandable rather than messy and confusing.
World Class Beauty Queens Magazine: How did you prepare for your competition?
For this competition I have prepared by practicing my pageant walk, my interviews, my dance and performances, learning how to properly work with social media, and i’ve also put a lot of work into my public speaking.
World Class Beauty Queens Magazine: What is one mistake that you've done during competing you wish you could redo and fix it?
One mistake i’ve made while competing is stressing over the routine rather than relaxing because if you just relax and enjoy the moment its shows in your performance so its always important to just yourself enjoy the moment and give it your all rather than stressing on certain movements or anything like that.
World Class Beauty Queens Magazine: What other mistakes are made by girls during the contest?
Many girls focus more on their pageant walk rather than their attitude and performance which is something I feel that is a misconception when walking because although you may mess up in some part of your routine you can always recover with how you improvise and continue to add attitude and energy into your walk.
World Class Beauty Queens Magazine: Any modeling or acting experience?
I have taken Acting classes as a child as well as modeling classes but i didn't decide to pursue it until 7 months ago when I received the opportunity to become Miss Cuba Teenager.
World Class Beauty Queens Magazine: What are your plans for 2026 as a Queen?
As a Queen my plans for 2026 are to give my all into preparation for Miss Teenager Universe and to support my community while doing so by volunteering and donating. I also plan on farther expanding my own personal business.
World Class Beauty Queens Magazine: What kind of legacy do you want to leave behind?
I want to leave behind the legacy of a strong, dedicated, and resilient titleholder who was proud of representing her country and I want to encourage the next Miss Cuba Teenager to do everything she can for her community and country. And finally to win the crown for Cuba and hopefully go for the B2B!
World Class Beauty Queens Magazine would like to say thank you for this wonderful interview.
