In a world that often rushes young people toward achievement before understanding, Princess Mica L. Dasallas stands as a reminder that true excellence begins with intention. At only 13 years old, she carries herself with the quiet confidence of someone who knows not only where she is going, but why she is going there. Her journey is not a race for recognition—it is a deliberate walk guided by discipline, faith, and service.
There are young leaders who lead loudly, and there are those who lead meaningfully. Princess Mica belongs to the latter.
A consistent honor student at Calamba City Science Integrated School, she currently serves as Class President of Grade 8 (SY 2025–2026), Grade 8 Representative of the Supreme Secondary Learner Government (SSLG), and President of BCA Palo Alto (2025–2028). Each title she holds is supported by action, not entitlement—proof that leadership is not inherited, but earned through responsibility.
Leadership, after all, is not measured by how many follow you, but by how many you uplift along the way.
Balancing Brilliance and Responsibility
Life in a science high school demands more than intelligence—it requires endurance. For Princess Mica, the challenge of balancing academic rigor with leadership duties is met with structure and foresight.
“I believe time management is the foundation of everything,” she shares. “Knowing what comes first and preparing for every step helps me stay focused. If you fail to plan, you plan to fail.”
Her days are carefully organized, yet flexible—allowing space for growth, rest, and reflection.
Discipline does not restrict dreams; it protects them.
Leadership Rooted in Integrity
Princess Mica’s leadership journey began not with ambition, but with concern.
“From a young age, I felt the need to lead—not because I wanted power, but because I feared leadership would fall into the wrong hands,” she explains. “Leadership should never be used for selfish reasons.”
She believes leadership exists to serve.
“To be a servant of the people is the true purpose of leadership.”
True leadership is not about standing above others, but standing firm for them.
Lessons Beyond the Classroom
Science sharpened her mind, but life shaped her character.
“One important lesson I learned is that no one knows everything,” Princess Mica reflects. “Even experts continue to learn.”
She also learned the value of discernment in relationships.
“People come and go. What matters is knowing who stays true.”
Growth often begins when we accept change.
A Crown That Built Confidence
Among her many pageant titles—Ms. CAS Ambassador Queen 2024, Ms. ECO 3rd Princess 2024, Ms. CAS Junior Queen 2023, and TSAAC Pre-Teen 2nd Princess 2024—one remains closest to her heart.
“Winning Little Miss Laguna 2nd Runner-Up 2018 when I was seven taught me confidence.”
Being underestimated became her motivation.
Sometimes the smallest beginnings build the strongest foundations.
Grace Under Pressure
Pageantry transformed Princess Mica from a shy child into a confident speaker.
“Standing on stage taught me that my voice mattered.”
Before stepping onto the runway, she centers herself through preparation.
When preparation meets purpose, confidence follows.
Influence Beyond the Spotlight
Princess Mica serves as brand ambassadress for Moderu VIP, SouthSide Apparel, Ligaya Couture, Crowns and Scepters, The Palms Resort, and The Modern Villa by SBM, among others.
Her face has appeared on billboards and print ads for Duty Free Philippines, National Bookstore, KKV Philippines, Mhane Aesthetic Center, Lipa Buko Coconut Juice, and Chris Sports, and she has worked alongside icons such as SB19 and Apl.de.Ap.
Yet she values the simple behind-the-scenes moments most.
Success feels lighter when shared.
Modeling with Meaning
“I choose brands that align with my values,” she says.
Through modeling, she hopes to remind young girls of their worth.
Influence guided by integrity becomes empowerment.
Faith, Family, and Forward Vision
Princess Mica credits her family—especially her parents—as her greatest inspiration.
Above all, she anchors her life in faith.
“Without God, none of this would be possible.”
Despite a demanding schedule, she makes time to be a teenager.
Looking ahead five years, Princess Mica envisions prioritizing education while remaining connected to fashion.
Dreams grow strongest when built on purpose.
Princess Mica L. Dasallas—Calamba’s Rising Star— shines not only through achievements, but through character, humility, and a heart committed to service.
