Miss Lebanon

Nadine Njeim

What are your interests and what do you enjoy doing the most?
I have a very high interest in extreme sports, politics and anything humanitarian. I am a paramedic in the Lebanese Red Cross and any time there is a crisis, I am there. When we had the war in Lebanon, for example, I helped the refugees. I was also part of the scouts - we did everything from extreme sports to helping poor people, disabled people, nuns, homebound people, etc.

What is your career ambition?
My career ambition is very specific. My major is international business. In 10 years, I see myself with my own company and running the company as a successful person, offering the market something new and making a change in the marketplace.

Describe where you were raised and what your childhood was like.
I was raised in Lebanon and an image always come to mind of my childhood. It was a bittersweet childhood. On one hand, I learned how to rise from the rubble because during my childhood Lebanon went an extremely destructive war. On the other hand, I was able to enjoy my childhood because thank God my family was able to stay together - and other families weren't so lucky. We were able to have happy moments together.

What do you want the judges to know about you?
I want the judges to know that the experiences that I've been through, i.e., from surviving the war, being in the Red Cross, doing a lot of humanitarian activities, have made me a stronger person. Therefore, I know that any job that jumps into my hand, I will know how to handle it and I will know how to turn it my way. I also want them to know that I want to help change the stereotypical image of a beauty queen. I want people to know that we are women of substance and strength.
