MISS SA 2018: TAMARYN GREEN

23-year-old medical student Tamaryn Green walked away with the title of Miss South Africa 2018 on Sunday.  Her dream of helping others is what drew the beauty queen to medicine. Now, with the platform that the title of Miss SA will provide, Tamaryn says she can give back in more ways than one.

“Before tonight I was a medical student, I was almost qualified, and I was going to help in that way – I was going to help through medicine. And now I can do both.”  Her message to young women across the country is simple: “I want every girl to try and embrace who they are,” she explains.
