What is the craziest thing you have ever done?

I conquered a fear of heights and water by jumping off in a parachute and flying over a lake. I'm always adventurous in the sense that I only ever regret things I don't do because there is always a “What if…”

Name one personal accomplishment (in addition to being a Miss Universe Canada contestant) that makes you especially proud.

As a first generation Canadian, I am very proud of my Latin roots and Spanish culture, and how at such a young age I overcame the language barrier and adapted to a new culture here in Canada, a country that opened up a world of opportunities for me.

What is the most important thing you want people to know about you?

I want people to know that despite being a determined and ambitious individual, I remain genuine and compassionate to others.

What is your favourite movie, song, sport, and food?

Movie: “Rat Race”

What would you like to accomplish if you win the Miss Universe Canada title?

I believe that we are all winners-the 54 of us. Winning the title would be an additional benefit that would help me fulfill one of my desires to share my voice and send a message to others of helping those in need whether its volunteering through charity events, or simply providing a smile to make one's day.

A motto that has served you as inspiration.

“To the world you may be one person, but to one person you may be the world”
