Jacqueline - Miss Teen International 2025
1. What kind of BARBIE do you think you’d be?
I would make it a rule that everyone must perform at least one small act of kindness or service for someone else each day—whether that’s sharing a smile, volunteering, or simply listening. I believe that when we open our eyes to others’ needs, even the tiniest gesture can ripple out and transform communities.
2. What’s the weirdest item you keep by your bed?
I’d choose the power to instantly teleport anywhere in the world. That way, I could be right there with children in need—bringing supplies, encouragement, or just a friend to talk to—without the barriers of distance or time.
3. What cartoon character do you relate to the most and why?
I think a young person really steps into adulthood the moment they start taking responsibility not only for themselves but for others—when they choose to serve, to listen, and to act with integrity even when no one’s watching.
4. Would you time travel to the past or future?
I’ve learned that empathy—truly seeing and caring about what someone else is going through—is the most powerful tool we have. It teaches us to listen with our hearts and to take action, because service isn’t about grand gestures, it’s about recognizing someone’s worth.
5. How would your parents describe your personality?
To me, the hardest job is being a foster parent or guardian. It takes endless patience, love, and courage to open your home and heart to a child who’s faced trauma, and to help them believe in themselves again. That kind of dedication—day in and day out—is something I deeply admire.
