"Beyond grateful to be your Miss Earth - Water 2020. Throughout this year, I have changed and grown so much as a person. Learning to find the confidence as a spokesperson is not the easiest journey but I have found power in my voice along the way. Environmental Protection has grown in me day by day and I know this is what should be given more importance while we are still given the gift to live.

This is the end to a new beginning. I have so much gratitude for the Miss Earth Organization who helped me find who I truly am and what I am destined for. Beyond grateful for team Philippines and to everyone who held my hands and showed me I can do it. It was a year long journey of up and downs, twist and twirlies, but if there’s one thing I have learned, it is that everything worth having is worth working hard for with all your heart. This is for us, all of us."
