2011 Miss World A’Fair

Bio for Shirin Dey

            Shirin is a sixteen year old junior at Centerville High School. Her primary interests lie in academics, tennis, and the arts. She participates in many extra-curricular groups such as the Unit Assembly (a division of Student Council), Varsity Tennis Team, Poetry Club, Academic Team, Speech Team, Octagon Club, Key Club, Spanish Honors Society, Diversity Club, Students against Destructive Decisions, Drama Club, and the Asian American Youth Council of Dayton. Shirin plays the violin in the Centerville Symphonic Orchestra, Alternative Strings, and the Dayton Philharmonic Youth Orchestra. In addition, she tutors younger violinists and has volunteered at Centerville Youth Orchestra rehearsals. In 2010, she was awarded the title of Miss India by the India Club of Greater Dayton. Since sixth grade, Shirin has accumulated over 600 hours of community service and has supported Vimukti, a school for special children in Kerala, India. In 2010 she traveled to New Orleans on a mission trip with the Incarnation Church Youth Group to help with various projects in the Katrina relief effort. She was thoroughly impressed with the leadership of Mack McClendon while working at the Lower Ninth Ward Village Community Center there and has become involved in applying for a $250,000 grant from the Pepsi Refresh Program to further aid McClendon’s work. Shirin became a member of the DIFI youth group in 2010 and has supported the group as a volunteer and dancer. She was recently nominated as the DIFI youth group treasurer for 2011. Shirin is proud to celebrate her own culture through the India Club of Dayton by having participated in its dance performances at the festival since the age of 8. Shirin believes the World A’Fair preserves cultures from different parts of the world. By doing so, the festival keeps heritage and tradition alive, especially for the youth and future generations. Furthermore, DIFI helps promote awareness of different backgrounds that exist in our community, thereby advocating tolerance, peace, and understanding among all people. She looks forward to promoting the World A’Fair as its very first female Ambassador and sincerely wishes you enjoy the festival!
