Taking note of these new affiliations and changes in the organizations you collaborate with, I have adjusted the text to accurately reflect your current profile. Carmen Josefina “Pilín” León Crespo was born in Maracay, Venezuela, in 1963. Her public career began in 1981 when she was crowned Miss World, a role in which she visited more than thirty countries carrying out social work. After relinquishing the title, she entered the business sector with her special events company in her home country. In 2009, she moved to Colombia, became a citizen, and became a columnist for the newspaper El Heraldo. Since 2012, she has actively supported the diaspora. She is co-founder and president of the Venezolanos en Barranquilla association, which focuses on providing humanitarian assistance and social inclusion.
