About Me
My name is Maria Bianca Petcu, I am 24 years old, and I come from Constanța, Romania. I am a model, an international beauty pageant titleholder, and a woman who believes that there is no single definition of who a woman should be or what she can become.
My journey has been shaped by discipline, education, ambition, and the courage to explore new horizons. Before discovering the world of modelling, I spent nine years practising competitive aerobic gymnastics, studied Medical Chemistry, earned two Master’s degrees, and worked for two and a half years in the Quality Control Department of a pharmaceutical laboratory. These experiences helped me develop determination, attention to detail, adaptability, and a strong sense of responsibility.
In 2025, I decided to step outside my comfort zone and explore a completely different world: modelling and international beauty pageants. What began as a new challenge quickly became a meaningful way of expressing myself and discovering new dimensions of my personality.
Since then, I have gained experience in modelling, runway appearances, fashion shows, and international beauty competitions. Some of my most important achievements include:
- 3rd Runner-UpMiss Universe Romania 2026
- 1st Runner-UpMiss Tourism Universe 2026
- 4th Runner-Up & Miss EuropeWorld Next Top Model 2026
These experiences have strengthened my confidence, stage presence, posture, expressiveness, and ability to adapt to different creative environments.
To me, modelling is much more than posing in front of a camera or walking down a runway. It is an art form — a language beyond words, where emotions become expressions, movement becomes storytelling, and every photograph captures a different feeling.
I express myself through the camera lens and on the runway. These are the places where I find my voice beyond words, where every glance, movement, and expression tells a story. For me, modelling is not just about being seen; it is about making people feel something through what they see.
I love the versatility of this world. I can be elegant, bold, delicate, powerful, or effortlessly natural, without ever losing my sense of identity. I enjoy exploring different styles, embodying different characters, and bringing creative visions to life. In front of the camera, I find both freedom and balance: a space where I can release my emotions, reconnect with myself, and recharge my energy. It is where creativity meets confidence and where I feel truly alive.
Beyond modelling, I am an active, outgoing, and curious person who loves travelling, discovering new cultures, learning new things, and embracing experiences that challenge me to grow. I am ambitious, creative, adaptable, and always open to new opportunities.
I am particularly interested in collaborations within fashion, beauty, advertising, and lifestyle, including editorial photoshoots, runway shows, commercial campaigns, and international projects. I approach every opportunity with professionalism, dedication, and a genuine passion for what I do.
I am not defined by a single path, and I never want to be. I am a woman who values both intellect and beauty, discipline and creativity, strength and femininity.
Above all, I believe that there is always another side of ourselves waiting to be discovered — and I am excited to keep discovering mine.
