This is great! Though I'm not entirely sure why she's loitering around on the Google MTV campus in those pictures captioned San Francisco :/

I love stories about people who got into tech along an uncommon path.

>I also happen to be quite geeky and nerdy. Which is probably something most people don’t expect when they think of a beauty queen.

It's 2020. There are now lots of attractive women who are geeky and nerdy. Just look at the cosplay industry. Or, ahem, Twitch.

It's not the 90s or early 2000s anymore. There's nothing exceptional or noteworthy about a beauty queen or lingerie model or whoever who likes anime, or board games, or manga, or programming, or gaming on a desktop.

People (of both genders) used to be looked down on for liking these things, but that hasn't been the case for over a decade. They're cool now.

I think words like “geeky” and “nerdy” lost their true meaning in the last decade. It’s now more about image and fashion. Anybody who writes a simple website is now called geeky or nerdy.

It’s especially abused to describe pretty girls, since many guys figured out that calling a girl nerdy or geeky increases their chances of getting in her pants.

She was never Miss Universe. She won the national Puerto Rico Miss Universe contest, and in the international Miss Universe competition she won two minor prices. (most photogenic and best dress) She's also not that exceptionally looking, guess her geekness shows.
