Ylianna Requiem Summary

Ylianna Guerra's story begins when she was in high school, struggling to develop self confidence. She entered her first pageant, a local preliminary for Miss Texas USA the last semester of her senior year of high school. Growing up Ylianna was involved in dance, and after her production of the Nutcracker in December, she had a lot of time on her hands outside of school because dance was essentially over. The local recruiter convinced her to compete in the pageant, Ylianna figured it would be a good “distraction” because she was anxiously awaiting college acceptance letters. She ended up winning that preliminary competition, and was hooked from that moment forward.
