“The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.”-Eleanor Roosevelt

I am a dreamer, a young woman determined to make giris all over Africa believe in their dreams too; I am Xiluva Helani.

As an 18 year old stepping into the world of endless possibilities, my dreams never end. As a future construction engineer and runway model, I am determined to dominate in both the STEM and fashion industries, to create a path that future young girls can strive in and convey the meaning of beauty with brains. 

Being in the pageant industry for 9 years, I have learnt the importance of discipline and resilience, and being able to stand up for those who can’t stand up for themselves. I’ve spent my days volunteering at various disabled care centers learning about the importance of patience and never giving up in life. 

During my reign, I hope not only to showcase the glamour of being an International Junior Miss title holder but also the responsibility of being a young woman willing to take a stand in her community.
