Looking forward to the competition in Guatemala and commenting on the huge task at hand Yamease says, "This is truly a wonderful and exciting opportunity. Not only do I have the honor of representing my country, but I have also been appointed the task to represent the entire Caribbean. The diverse people, vibrant culture and breathtaking scenery are the very personification of what a queen should be - diverse, vibrant and breathtaking. My aim is to be myself, to give it my all and allow my personality, talent and intellect to shine in every aspect of this competition. I am really looking forward interacting with the other contestants, making new friends, learning about their cultures and above all; return with the international title. My hope is that this experience will prove to be one that will impact my life in a positive and powerful way."
