Founder & CEO

Ramishaa Lingaratnam

Miss Ceylon 2025/2026 · Miss Canada Runner-Up 2025

Ramishaa founded South Asia Pageant after experiencing firsthand what the stage can give a woman: confidence, opportunity, and a voice that carries beyond the crown. Her own journey representing her heritage inspired a vision bigger than titles — a platform where South Asian women, of every background, culture, and story, can grow personally and professionally while proudly representing their communities on the world stage.

Today, South Asia Pageant is built on that same promise — an inclusive, supportive home for delegates to embrace where they come from, and lead where they're going.

Culture. Confidence. Community.
