Why do you do what you do?
I instruct modeling as a self-confidence tool because I feel passionate about arts and how arts transformed me into who I'm today using modeling skills.
What are some projects you are currently working on?
Some of the projects I'm working now is being Mrs. Puerto Rico Millennium Universe candidate after 20 years of my first pageant, my modeling and confidence mentorship is already online after 5 months on working on it, the Puerto Rico Pageant franchise and a chapter of a book I will be contributing as an entrepreneur and empowered entrepreneur.
What are your goals for the short-term and long-term?
My short term goals are continuing with the franchise and get more candidates into the opportunity to travel Malaysia representing their countries, intensifying and bettering my skills as entrepreneur and mentor, and working on my fashion blog. My long term goals I will be opening a nonprofit so I can impart modeling skills as a confidence tool to everyone for free. I think what I had always wanted to change in the fashion industry was inclusion and now is happening.

If you could change anything about your industry, what would it be?
The industry is opening to different sizes, heights and ages, that had been a great achievement and change upon the industry.
Who or what inspires you?
What motivates me is being the role model to others to achieve success no matter what they have endured during life, is about what you do with your opportunities.What do you plan to do once you cross the millionaire mark?
If I cross the millionaire mark I will definitely keep working to create non-profit and help to women in the world. Women empowerment is something that we need to reinforce in every place to create equality. Confidence is the foundation of empowerment and is my creed to achieve anything in life and succeed, it will always be my motto to continue growing other people's life.
