MANDAUE CITY, Cebu–Miss Mandaue 2024 is Stefanie Przewodnik, a 19-year-old Filipino-German from Consolacion, Cebu.

Before being crowned Miss Mandaue 2024, Przewodnik was also crowned Miss Consolacion 2022.
Miss Mandaue 2023 is Victoria Leslie Ingram
The first runner up title was given to Angela Aumonier who was also awarded Miss Photogenic, Media’s Choice Aware, and Best in Swimwear.
Kylah Mae Dela Peña, who was also named Miss Congeniality, Best in Fun Wear, Best in Production Number, and Best in Evening gown, was the second runner up.
Przewodnik Q and A answer
The three ladies were asked a common question during the final question and answer portion. They were asked how they could cultivate a garden of unity, progress, and inclusivity in the city as Miss Mandaue 2024.
This was Przewodnik’s answer:
“I am glad to see that Mandaue is a city that is a gateway of inclusivity and that promotes unity among its people. I know Mandaue is diverse. We have so much people and we are very welcoming of people from different areas. And a way that I can cultivate in this city is that I want to teach people to listen to one another. And not just listen to give a response. But to listen for comprehension,”
“I believe, we believe. I know that we believe that communication is key. But communication without comprehension would lead us nowhere. In a city that’s so diverse, we know that we have so much differences. But if we could connect and come together, then I know Mandaue will be a city that is limitless, will have possibilities that are endless.”
Perseverance pays off
Przewodnik admitted that her joining this year’s Miss Mandaue pageant was tainted with so many uncertainties.
However, she managed to persevere and bring home the coveted title.
“It was really mind over matter because there were so many times where doubt came in or there were so many times that I was so close to giving up. But I pushed through. I persevered and here I am today,” she said.
Przewodnik also expressed overwhelming joy and gratitude to her family, friends, and mentors who were with her in her Miss Mandaue 2024 journey.
Eyes on Miss Mandaue 2024 crown
While she prepared for the pageant, she also had to attend to her classes and other school activities as a senior high school student taking up the Accountancy Business Management (ABM) strand in one of the schools in Cebu City.
“I’m overjoyed. I’m filled with gratitude. And of course, I wouldn’t be here if it weren’t for the people who supported me and guided me and mentored me,” she said.
Knowing that she has all the support that she needs, Przewodnik had her eyes on the crown during the coronation night on Saturday.
