Sophia Yervasi is the State Director for the Idaho Royalty USA Pageant, the official preliminary that sends Idaho’s delegates to the Royalty USA national stage. With more than eight years of pageant experience, Sophia brings a blend of leadership, creativity, and genuine passion to the program.
Her pageant journey began after watching Miss Congeniality with her best friend — a moment that sparked a lifelong love for pageantry. Since then, Sophia has earned three Miss Idaho titles, five Miss Congeniality awards, and the prestigious Global Beauty Award, often described as the Oscars of pageantry. Yervasi has competed in over six pageant systems and represented Idaho at nationals three times, giving her a deep understanding of what it takes to succeed at every level.
In addition to her accomplishments as a competitor, Sophia has spent years as a pageant coach, helping young women develop confidence, stage presence, and purpose. Now entering her second year as State Director, she is excited to build on everything she learned during her first year and continue elevating the Idaho Royalty USA experience.
Sophia is committed to growing the system, expanding opportunities for contestants, and creating a pageant environment rooted in empowerment, sisterhood, and excellence. Her vision for the upcoming year reflects her dedication to Idaho’s young women and her passion for the future of pageantry in the state.
