Although West Chicago resident Norina Infusino had never before participated in a pageant, she decided to take a leap of faith in July 2012 and compete for a spot on the Queen's Court of the Columbus Day Parade in Chicago.
Infusino wanted to try something new that would push her out of her comfort zone. She never thought she'd be named a semi-finalist, but she was. "I was just happy to be participating in the pageant," said Infusino, 24. "I didn't even expect to place."
