The product of two prominent\u00a0Island families, Emma Wo is\u00a0determined to find success on\u00a0her own terms. That includes\u00a0winning the Miss Hawaii USA\u00a0crown. Now she’s off to the\u00a0Miss USA pageant<\/strong><\/p>\n

M<\/span>eet Miss Hawaii\u00a0USA 2015 Emma\u00a0Wo. She\u2019s a 25-year-old public relations executive\u00a0who has a passion for\u00a0fashion, and wants to one day\u00a0start her own marketing firm.\u00a0She also hopes to become Miss\u00a0USA, and will have the chance\u00a0to do so July 12 when the\u00a0national pageant takes place in\u00a0Baton Rouge.<\/p>\n

She arrived in Louisiana last\u00a0Monday, along with many\u00a0other contestants from across\u00a0the country, and quickly\u00a0learned that Univision and\u00a0NBC were no longer airing the\u00a0Miss USA pageant because of\u00a0comments Donald Trump,\u00a0who co-owns the Miss\u00a0Universe Organization, made\u00a0about Mexican immigrants\u00a0during his presidential\u00a0announcement speech.<\/p>\n

Despite the controversy, the\u00a0Miss Universe Organization\u00a0announced that the show\u00a0would still go on, and fortunately\u00a0REELZ announced last\u00a0Thursday that it acquired the\u00a0rights to exclusively telecast\u00a0the 2015 Miss USA pageant,\u00a0airing July 12 at 8 p.m. EDT\u00a0and PDT. The show also will\u00a0be streamed live online at missuniverse.com\/missusa.<\/p>\n

\u201cThese recent events have\u00a0really affected our contestants,\u00a0and Emma has been amazingly\u00a0positive through this uncertain\u00a0time,\u201d says state director Alicia\u00a0Michioka Jones, who was\u00a0Miss Hawaii USA in 2003.\u00a0\u201cThis pageant is not about\u00a0Donald Trump. It\u2019s about these\u00a0women, legacies and dreams.\u201d<\/p>\n

For the past year, Wo has\u00a0been working tirelessly to be\u00a0in her best shape \u2014 mentally,\u00a0physically and emotionally \u2014\u00a0at Miss USA. \u201cMy major goal\u00a0is to really make a splash at\u00a0Miss USA and represent\u00a0Hawaii like I know I can,\u201d she\u00a0says. \u201cBeing Miss Hawaii\u00a0USA and being a representative\u00a0of this state has made me\u00a0so proud of what we have\u00a0going on here. So going to\u00a0nationals and showing everyone\u00a0what Hawaii is all about is\u00a0a really cool opportunity for\u00a0me.\u201d<\/p>\n

Wo, who was raised in\u00a0Manoa and graduated from\u00a0Punahou School in 2008, is the\u00a0daughter of Buzz Wo, a principal\u00a0at CKW Financial Group,\u00a0and Kitty Wo, Foodland vice\u00a0president. Her maternal grandfather\u00a0is Maurice \u201cSully\u201d\u00a0Sullivan, who along with her\u00a0grandmother Joanna Lau\u00a0Sullivan, founded Foodland\u00a0more than 65 years ago. Her\u00a0paternal great-grandfather is\u00a0Ching Sing Wo, founder of\u00a0C.S. Wo.<\/p>\n

Yes, her family tree is highly-regarded and well-respected,\u00a0and she takes great pride in\u00a0that. She recognizes the many\u00a0opportunities she\u2019s been given,\u00a0including her private school\u00a0education, and doesn\u2019t take any\u00a0of it for granted. She graduated\u00a0with honors from Scripps\u00a0College in Claremont, Calif.,\u00a0earning a degree in media studies\u00a0with a minor in English literature.\u00a0During college, she\u00a0also studied abroad in London,\u00a0and interned with various companies,\u00a0including KITV news,\u00a0PBS Hawaii and Sullivan\u00a0Family of Companies. She also\u00a0spent time in New York City,\u00a0where she interned at Vogue<\/em>\u00a0magazine, working in its\u00a0Fashion Closet and online editorial\u00a0departments.<\/p>\n

Now, the Kapahulu resident\u00a0is a senior account executive\u00a0at Bennet Group Strategic\u00a0Communications and has her\u00a0own blog called The Aloha\u00a0Babe (thealohababe.com<\/a>), which\u00a0she started two years ago as a\u00a0hobby and has since evolved\u00a0into a small business.<\/p>\n

\"Emma<\/a>

\u201cI would be lying if I said I\u00a0didn\u2019t feel a little bit of pressure\u00a0to make something of myself\u00a0and really find success, but I\u2019m\u00a0lucky that my parents have\u00a0kept my options wide open,\u201d\u00a0says Wo, who is Chinese and\u00a0Irish. \u201cSo whatever it is I want\u00a0to do, whether it\u2019s fashion or\u00a0marketing or to be a full-time\u00a0blogger, they support me.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy mom always told me\u00a0with great privilege comes\u00a0great responsibility, and I think\u00a0I\u2019ve been super lucky to have\u00a0had so many opportunities, and\u00a0now it\u2019s time for me to shine.\u201d<\/p>\n

The youngest of three girls,\u00a0Wo is the only one in her family\u00a0who found an interest in\u00a0modeling and pageants. At the\u00a0suggestion of her mom, she\u00a0entered her first pageant at age\u00a017 and won the title of Miss\u00a0Hawaii Teen USA. \u201cAt first, I\u00a0was a little skeptical to put\u00a0myself out there, but I think\u00a0putting yourself out there is\u00a0really the only way you can\u00a0grow and learn new things\u00a0about yourself,\u201d she says. \u201cI\u2019ve\u00a0won and I\u2019ve lost pageants, but\u00a0every single time I think it\u2019s\u00a0about how you pick yourself\u00a0back up.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s what I like about\u00a0pageants, you learn what is\u00a0beautiful about yourself and\u00a0how to make those things stand\u00a0out, because there are 20 beautiful\u00a0girls on stage with you,\u00a0and you really have to learn\u00a0what are your strengths and\u00a0how do you point those out and\u00a0how do you use those to your\u00a0advantage.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was really shy, especially\u00a0in high school, and around\u00a0adults. I was always that kid\u00a0hiding behind my mom. But\u00a0pageants have opened me up\u00a0and allowed me to put more of\u00a0myself out there. Now when I\u00a0go and make appearances and\u00a0need to do public speaking or\u00a0networking \u2014 those are all\u00a0skills that I learned from\u00a0pageantry. People sometimes\u00a0say it\u2019s just a beauty pageant.\u00a0It\u2019s way more than that \u2014 it\u2019s\u00a0about developing yourself,\u00a0your self-confidence and\u00a0growing into a strong young\u00a0woman.\u201d<\/p>\n

Recently, Wo was accepted\u00a0into the masters program at\u00a0New York University, and\u00a0plans to start school in January.<\/p>\n

Her career goal is to start her\u00a0own marketing firm specializing\u00a0in fashion. She also wants\u00a0to travel more, which is another\u00a0passion of hers, and to continue\u00a0her work in the community.\u00a0Both of her parents are dedicated\u00a0volunteers, serve on multiple boards and have been\u00a0generous donors to various\u00a0causes.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy mom, I call her a community\u00a0volunteer,\u201d says Wo.\u00a0\u201cShe\u2019s an owner and board\u00a0member of Sullivan Family of\u00a0Companies (which includes\u00a0Foodland) and has a lot of passion\u00a0for that, but I think a bulk\u00a0of her time is spent in the community.\u00a0She\u2019s on the board\u00a0at Punahou School and\u00a0Chaminade University, and she\u00a0just put on a big flower show\u00a0at Honolulu Museum. I don\u2019t\u00a0know how she does it, but it\u2019s\u00a0definitely inspiration for me\u00a0to volunteer in the community\u00a0as well.<\/p>\n

\u201cOn both sides of my family,\u00a0they taught me about giving\u00a0back, and that\u2019s something I\u00a0strive to do with my title every\u00a0day, whether it\u2019s serving the\u00a0homeless, helping out with\u00a0Best Buddies International or\u00a0Susan G. Komen. I\u2019ve also\u00a0worked with YWCA\u2019s Going\u00a0Places Network, which helps\u00a0women who are unemployed\u00a0find employment and develop\u00a0the skills needed. I\u2019m interested\u00a0in empowering women.\u201d<\/p>\n

Growing up, Wo played volleyball\u00a0for Asics Rainbow volleyball\u00a0club, and even won a\u00a0gold medal with her team at\u00a0Junior Olympics when she was\u00a015. She also played piano for\u00a011 years, and was awarded a\u00a0Paderewski medal. As a Girl\u00a0Scout, she made the Girl\u00a0Scouts Cookie Hall of Fame\u00a0seven years in a row.<\/p>\n

\"Emma<\/a>

\u201cOne of the things my mom\u00a0used to make me do every year\u00a0was sell 1,000 boxes of Girl\u00a0Scout cookies, so I used to go\u00a0to the McDonald\u2019s office and\u00a0to every person in the Foodland\u00a0corporate office to ask them to\u00a0buy cookies.<\/p>\n

\u201cI also used to stand outside\u00a0of Foodland Market City and\u00a0Foodland Beretania every day\u00a0after school and asked every\u00a0single person if they wanted to\u00a0buy cookies. That taught me\u00a0hard work, sales skills, and to\u00a0put yourself out there and see\u00a0what happens. Looking back,\u00a0some hilarious times were had\u00a0and it definitely brought me\u00a0closer to my mom too.\u201d<\/p>\n

Taught to be driven from a\u00a0young age, Wo says she really\u00a0tries to give all that she can in\u00a0everything she does, and it\u00a0shows.<\/p>\n

Just watch her Sunday on\u00a0Miss USA and you\u2019ll see.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
