At 175cm, Qundya Yap brings creativity, courage, and an unapologetic sense of self to the Miss Universe Singapore 2025 stage. A student and rising content creator, she has built a loyal online following through her fashion-forward posts, brand collaborations, and her design venture, QuentinPotens. Passionate about beauty, culture, and storytelling, Qundya’s work bridges style with substance, inspiring her audience to embrace their individuality.

Her advocacy focuses on mental health awareness and empowering youth to step into their true selves without fear of judgment. Having grown up feeling like an outsider, she found her confidence through social media, connecting with a global community that celebrates her for who she is. She hopes to be “a light for people who are afraid of the dark,” guiding them toward self-acceptance and strength.

A hidden talent is her love for jazz singing, and she admits to strutting down the street in high heels with earbuds in, imagining herself on the runway. Rejection early in her modeling journey only fueled her determination.

“I was told, ‘Reach for the moon. Even if you fall, you’re lying among the stars.’ That’s how I see every setback — as a step toward my big ‘yes.’”
