Kimberly Castillo
Pageant Contestant
In 2010, this Dominican model won her country's Miss Italia nel Mondo pageant title. Four years later, she was crowned Miss Dominican Republic.
She started modeling in her mid teens and went on to earn an undergraduate degree in fashion design and architecture from the Pontificia Universidad Catolica Madre y Maestra.
She competed in the 2014 Miss Universe pageant, but failed to make it to the Top 15.
Raised by her Italian father, she spent her early years in Salvaleon de Higuey, Dominican Republic. She began a relationship with a guy named Carlos.
Two years before Castillo received the same title, Dulcita Lieggi was crowned Miss Dominican Republic.
