Faydeha King, a former Miss Guyana, on Wednesday launched Crowned, an agency designed to train both men and women competing in pageants, pursuing careers in modelling or looking to become brand ambassadors representing Guyana on international stages.

Faydeha, who has years of experience in pageantry, will be sharing the skills that helped her secure top spots in pageants. In this, she will be assisted by professionals who will work to prepare clients to be crowned or to achieve their aspirations and goals.

“Crowned is a body image, model and pageant agency/consultancy,” Faydeha said. “… the facilitators of Crowned … are going to be preparing, protecting and supporting individuals who are interested in the industry of modelling and pageantry. We are also catering for persons who [have no modelling or pageantry interest] … just want to be their best selves… to [stand] out at events they attend and capture the attention of everyone. Interested persons will have access to workshops and training and other activities…” Clients will be trained in public speaking, etiquette, working the runway, to be poised and confident.
