Macqueen Serrao, a 25-year-old pharmacist from Mumbai, Maharashtra, knows the importance of responsibility. Being the eldest in her family has instilled in her a strong work ethic and a burning desire to chase her dreams. “Obeying my responsibilities,” she says, “has taught me one thing: being the eldest does not limit your goals; instead, it fuels them.” With this spirit, Macqueen embarks on her journey towards the Miss TGPC crown.
Contesting for India’s Miss TGPC Season-12 against 50 other girls from across India and beyond, Macqueen is ready to embark on a journey of self-discovery, empowerment, and advocacy, all while showcasing the diversity and vibrancy of India.
