True Beauty Interview – Miss Minnesota Latina

I just love this girl’s presence! I had the pleasure to sit down and get to know Vanessa Berrueta. She moved from Venezuela to Minnesota just 9 months ago and it is incredible what this woman has accomplished!
She recently won the title of Miss Minnesota Latina 2013 and will be traveling to Mexico in a few short days to compete for the title of Miss Latina US. I wanted pick her brain to see what exactly how and why she has gotten to be the successful, charismatic, positive person that she is.
Check out the interview as we talk about her philosophy on life, pageantry and what inspires her. You will be convinced she is not only a wonderful person, but a great representative for the US, Minnesota, women and Latinos everywhere!
And be sure to follow Miss Minnesota Latina on Facebook and Twitter!

And then if you win, it becomes even more a part of your world as you have appearances once or more a week, and are preparing yourself to compete for the national or International title on top of that. What happens after the pageant or after you pass on your title? Some women run into trouble after all the excitement of the pageant because they have started to attach and identify themselves with the pageant and/or title. You are NOT your title.
