Krystal Byron - Miss Teen Barbados 2012
A
t 5.5 feet Krystal Desteen Byron represents the
perfect combination of both beauty and brains,
a mixture necessary for someone crowned Ms. Teen
Barbados 2012. Inspired by a family friend (Andre
Harris), Krystal was brought into the modelling
industry some three years ago and has not turned
back since. Though under the radar for the two years
since she has been crowned Ms. Teen Barbados
2012, Krystal has been committed to furthering her
education.
A: The designer at the time dealt with the whole
designing process. It was an international pageant,
so why not use the colors of our national flag!
Q: What do you plan to do within the next 3 to 5
years?
A: Hopefully by then I would have achieved my
degree in nursing and would have already started
working as a nurse.
However, passionate about the industry, Krystal
have modeled at the Bridgetown Dooflicky and at
the Fashion Show segment of the Opening Gala.
Modelling for Krystal provides a thrill and sudden
rush of adrenaline. She expressed that the adrenaline
she feels from being on the runway or simply being
in front of a camera is indescribable, that it inspires
her as a model.
Like a caterpillar transforming into a butterfly,
Krystal through the Ms. Teen Barbados Universal
pageant also transformed. On entering the pageant
Krystal was fearful and lacked self-confidence.
However, on completing her journey, Krystal gained
self-confidence and did it with class and style taking home the crown.
Undoubtedly, Krystal embodies the characteristics
of a true overcomer and young Barbadian
Ambassador.

stories of life, love and family.
