The Sacramento Chamber of Commerce asked her to enter the 1953 Miss Sacramento Contest, which she did because she wanted the chance to perform in front of hundreds of people at Sacramento's Memorial Auditorium, as well as the chance to get free modeling lessons. Out of the 21 girls running, she won the title, singing "Yours" ("Quiéreme Mucho") for the talent portion of the competition.
