What were some of the highlights of this evening as you saw it?

  • Backstage friendliness, and all around support from the girls competing

Did you dedicate this win to someone? Who was it, and why? (Please don’t fill it in if you’re not comfortable)

  • I was actually thinking of all my family, who pushed me to go through with it, mostly my mother who was sick the night of the competition.

What were some of the highlights during your reign? (list at least 3)

  • Learning to relate better to people and learning the importance of a woman’s role in the Samoan culture
  • Having the support of the Samoan public at the Miss South Pacific
  • Having the honour and pleasure of working with wonderful people like Mrs Tommy Burr and the late Mr Derek Godinet

Briefly describe your career path after your reign as Miss Samoa.

  • On Lily’s return from University of Hawaii Hilo, she was given the opportunity to live and dance in Japan for six months (one of her favorite pastimes). It was in Japan that she met her childhood classmate who is now her husband.

Briefly tell us what you do at present? (Business, studying etc..)

  • A Financial Company (Federal Pacific Finance Ltd) employs Lily as an Administration/Loans officer.

What do you hope to achieve in the next 5 years

  • Lili has a beautiful little girl who is almost two years old, and says "If I can raise her as normal and as comfortable as possible, (and any other little Lili’s that come along) I will be happy"

What is your most valuable advice to young Samoan women in today’s changing Samoan community?

  • "Don’t put all your eggs into one basket" The world is full different people and different things to see. Don’t be limited by your surroundings. Most importantly, don’t be afraid to always question things when you don’t understand.
