Ms BVI: I can only get better from here
The beaming Hyndman in an interview with this news agency moments after her accomplishment, revealed that the day she won the Ms. BVI crown in August 2011, preparations began in earnest for the prestigious Caribbean pageant.
“And the hard work paid off! I am just happy to make the BVI proud...and this is just a stepping stone. I have several other pageants I am participating in. I can only get better from here,” she declared.
Commenting on her stellar performance throughout the highly competitive pageant, the confident young lady responded, “It’s been a while since we secured a spot in the top five much less win so I was going in full force and I am proud to be the first runner up.”
Apart from that, Hyndman won Ms. Intellect and Best Evening Wear awards.
The aspiring Anaesthesiologist also congratulated the winner Nadira Lando, Ms. Dominica, and the 14 other contestants that represented the “best of the best” from the Caribbean, and with a smile gushed, “First runner up is not a bad thing in my opinion.”
She added, “I must thank the BVI [people] that rallied behind me, and the love they showed me. Other persons from the Caribbean islands came out in their numbers and it just shows we are a unified Caribbean and that we are one people.”
Next stop for Ms. BVI is Miss. Carival in St. Vincent & the Grenadines, then the Miss. Jaycees Caribbean Queen Pageant followed by Miss Universe in December.
Hyndman, who took a year off her studies to perform her duties, is an advocate against domestic violence. She has collaborated with the Family Support Network to tackle the issue, and has called for the construction of a domestic violence shelter.
She is also a member of the Caribbean Student Association at Xavier University, a member of the Howard Hughes Biomedical Honor Corp at Xavier University of Louisiana, a volunteer of the Smile Beautification effort in the City of New Orleans, and a member of the National Honor Society- Amalian Chapter.
