Miss Mexico, Jimena Navarrete, recently won the Miss Universe Pageant. A young woman from Oakland is now preparing to compete for the title of Miss California, which could lead to Miss USA and Miss Universe.
Ashley Stuteville, 19, is preparing her mind and body for the Miss California Beauty Pageant to be held November 19-21. “I am Miss Piedmont USA, but I am representing all of Oakland, which is where I was born,” she says.
