Alysa Esponilla, a 16 years old lass who was born last March 12, 2002 in San Jose, Antique, was awarded as a Second Runner-up in Miss Teen International 2018 held in Thailand, she represented Quezon City.
Quezon City is the largest city of Metropolitan Manila, as what they call it "the city of stars", It is also known to be the home of the most well known celebrities in the Philippines. Alysa likes to visit in Quezon City is the "Art in an Island", since she is a young artist, it is a place where everything is possible. It inspired her to create a masterpiece and this artistic place brings her to her alternate universe, her world of creative imaginations. It is a Family-friendly art museum where visitors pose & take photos within 3D paintings & murals. located in 175 15th Ave., Brgy. Socorro, Cubao, Quezon City, 1109 Metro Manila.
Alysa is currently a 10th Grade visual artist student in Regional Lead School for the Arts in Angono, Rizal. She always have a passion and love for the arts, and she wants to improve herself by creating it. She balances her studies and modeling career as well as her training in pageantry.
Alysa is into painting/drawing, singing, reading books of my favorite genre, and sometimes perform a monologue in front of a mirror, as a form of relaxation. In sports badminton is her favorite pastime but just an amateur player.
In 2016, ALysa joined Queens of our Beautiful Planet and she won the title of Miss Teen Hope International PH 2016, and two special awards, the Body Beautiful Queen and Most potential model award. She was supposed to compete in Cape Town, South Africa for the international crown, but she was not able to because of some problem. But despite of not going internationally, opportunities still keeps knocking on her doorstep. She did ramp modeling, & print ad modeling, and that's why she pursue more of her modeling career in World's Best Models Philippines 2017. And this competition is where she learned every specific little detail on modeling and it help her to improve herself. and she unexpectedly won the title as World's Best Models Philippines 2017 Junior Division, last November 2017.
It all started when she was 14 years old with my best friends and aunt last 2016, she opened up the topic and asked her if she wanted to join Queens of our Beautiful Planet pageant 2016. At first, she told her mom about it and they discuss if she really wanted to be a beauty queen, but her anxiety always eats her up and she had always thought that she may not be good enough for pageantry, she was taken aback in her elementary years where she was bullied everyday nonstop; she was bullied because of how tan and tall she is; but instead of being drowned of her own insecurities, she decided to make it as her motivation to do better and become stronger. So she said "ok i'll give it a try." and she did, and gave it a shot. her QBP pageant is where she had her first catwalk/pageant walk; her first Closed door interview and Question and Answer.; but most especially where she learned how to be independent and do her own makeup. She did not expect to win anything at all but she tried her very best to do good and better. Her parents are her number one supporters and they encourage her to go further in Pageantry. And nay Alfie Bautista Eufemio was there to motivate and mentor her in everything she needs to know in this industry, he was the one who encouraged her to join World's Best Models Philippines 2017, she learned more of what she needs to know in this competition and in just a short span of time, she had improved herself, it just takes the passion and determination on reaching your goal.
As the winner of World's Best Models Philippines 2017 organized by Prowess Supremacy Production Inc., they honored her the title of Miss Teen International Quezon City, Philippines to compete for the Miss Teen International 2018 crown in Bangkok, Thailand. She joined the pageant with her advocacy, it is about Arts For Awareness (anti-bullying). It is all about motivating and inspiring every youth who experienced the same thing. As a fellow youth, she had always believed that by developing their artistic talent, it will help them to believe in their own ability to create and be confident. The best experience in joining Miss Teen International 2018 in Thailand is meeting new people in different parts of the world, discovering new places and learning their ways and culture, and most especially creating memories that Alyssa will absolutely hold on to her heart forever.
After Miss Teen International 2018 journey, she will for now focus on her studies, especially she is moving up to grade 11. And at the same time, she will also continue her modeling career and training for bigger pageants. She is still young and have a long way to go; there's so many to learn and improve, and she knows that someday. she'll be living that dream.
First of all Alyssa, would like to thank God for this blessings. A warm Thank you to the people behind her victory, Quezon City Vice Mayor Joy Belmonte, To Tito Edwind Uy, her mentor and provided all her gowns, tito Dave Ocampo, tito Joseph Stephen Santos, tita Jinky Garcia, Jas Baldoza, nay Alfie Baustista Eufemio, tita Vangie Chuidian, tito Jeffry Benitez, Ms Shandy Lim, mamu Tonett Chua, Mark Neto Diaz, tita Michelle Vitug Encarnation of Belmere Skincare Centre, tita Liza Querubin, to her parents who supported Alyssa all the way, family and friends .
Alysa, with her wit and Filipina features will surely be a potential beauty queen when she matures enough and had finished her education, she will be ready to hit the stage of pageantry once again but in the meantime, she is expected to train herself thru modeling exposures.
