“Inclusion and diversity are important to me. This is something that has been missing in my life so far, it is missing in today’s world, “said Enriquez.

“Personally, I learned that my difference does not make me any less, but on the contrary,” she continued.
Catalonia defeated 21 other candidates from the state of Nevada, who were fighting for a place in the competition for “Miss USA”. It will take place on November 29.

Enriquez, who was previously crowned Miss Silver State USA in March, walked the catwalk with several outfits she had created herself, including a glittering rainbow-colored sequin dress.
“I sewed my clothes myself because I didn’t have a lot of money. “Besides, it’s hard for women to find dresses that fit their figure,” she said.
Enriquez added that she entered the competition to share her story and show that she is more than a “female body”.
