Ingram stood out among all the candidates with her short hair and grace as she strut her way to the crown.
During the top three question and answer portion, Ingram picked judge Mr.Universe 2022 Elcid Camacho to ask her the question.
“Describe a situation wherein others put pressure on you and how did you manage or handle it?”
Ingram answered.
“Well, I am so used in joining pageants and everytime I join a pageant people always expect me to win. So you can imagine how heavy the pressure is, but, as time went by, I’ve grown into a woman and I realize that it isn’t necessary for me to absord everything that they say. Because at the end of the day, I am my own person and I know my ground.”
Ingram also bagged some special awards like Best in Talent and Miss Congeniality.
