In 2013, de Montecristo auditioned in Los Angeles to be a part of Nuestra Belleza Latina 2013, a Latina beauty pageant reality show broadcast on Univision. During the competition, her mentor was Venezuelan Osmel Sousa. She was ultimately selected as one of the twelve finalists, and progressed each week until being declared as the winner. After Trump sold the organization to WME-IMG, de Montecristo announced that she would compete in the Miss El Salvador 2018 competition. She won and was crowned Miss El Salvador 2018. She went on to represent El Salvador at Miss Universe 2018, where she was unplaced. ==References==
