Miss Trinidad & Tobago Anya Ayoung-Chee
Miss Japan Hiroko MimaMiss Trinidad & Tobago, Miss Anya Ayoung-chee finds something intriguing in every thing she sees. When Anya was twenty one years old, her family endured a tragic event which led to the creation of a welfare organization, TallMan Foundation, by her family. The foundation helps to empower under privileged young people. Her family turned a horrific experience into a positive life-giving one. Now, Anya’s future goal is to bridge the gap between beauty, success and socially conscious work. She wants to own and be the face of many businesses in creative fields and use these businesses to help others. Anya has a wide range of interest from fashion and photography to reggae music and documentaries but it is dancing she enjoys most and meeting new people. A risk taker who always follows what her heart says, Anya went to the art school when people told her to become a doctor. She always takes the unconventional and untried path.
