    Laureola shared in her speech "the Miss Aura International Philippines Organization, headed by its CE0/Owner/National Director US-based Fil-Am designer Kathleen Katniss Griffiths, initially planned to hold a national pageant but due to time constraint and the ongoing COVID-19 global pandemic, opted to hold a special screening. After considering the international pageant's requirements and qualifications, Alexandra Faith Garcia was unanimously chosen as the inaugural Philippine representative. During the final selection process, she won the nod of the organization as she fits the 4Bs qualifications that the international pageant is looking for - Beauty, Behavior, Brain and Body.
