She also won Miss World Guatemala 2017 and represented Guatemala at Miss World 2017 in Sanya, China.[1]

She has participated in national and international beauty events as Miss Universe Guatemala, since being crowned in 2016[2], giving her the opportunity to represent her country. She also took part in the most televised beauty event on the planet, Miss Universe, in 2017 in the city of Manila, Philippines. [3]

Career

Argueta began her career in the world of beauty by taking courses on modeling and posing for the camera. She later became a presenter for a sports program at NTV Guatemala, which helped her develop public presentation skills.

In 2016, Virginia's photographs became popular in social networks, causing the Miss Guatemala Organization to recruit her to participate. With only two months of preparation, she was crowned Miss Universe Guatemala 2016.[4]

To prepare to represent Guatemala in the Miss Universe pageant, Argueta enrolled in Portfolio Model International, a leading modeling agency in Venezuela.

After competing in Miss Universe, Argueta pursues her dream of becoming an international model. She participated in L.A.'s Fashion Week, Arts Hearts Fashion, in 2017, where she modeled exclusive designs by Rocky Gathercole, Willfredo Gerardo and Fernando Athelier.[5]

Argueta now serves as Director of Miss Guatemala USA. She has relocated the competition to the Republic of Guatemala.

Humanitarian work

Argueta is a spokeswoman for the nonprofit organization Love and Care for Our Children Guatemala, an organization launched in 2017 to promote better healthcare and educational opportunities for children in the Republic.
