Two Melbourne Greek Australian women are among the contestants vying for the Miss Universe Australia crown this year. Audrey Panagopoulos, 24, and Anastasia Chryssafis, 25, will represent Melbourne\u2019s Greek community as they compete on the national <\/a>stage.<\/h4>\n

Panagopoulos has built a career in business development and is passionate about empowering young people through leadership and mentoring.

Through speaking engagements and mentoring, she encourages high school students to explore career pathways that match their strengths and ambitions.
