Cody Yerkovich - Miss World New Zealand 2010

Cody is of Croatian, Maori and European descent and comes from the small town of Kaitaia from the very north of NZ. She has an optimistic, goal oriented, down to earth personality and aspires to make the most of her opportunity to raise funds for the charities close to her heart.

Being born and raised in the country she appreciates the little things that most people take for granted. She spends her spare time exploring New Zealand's beautiful natural environment, going to the beach, fishing, camping, skydiving and enjoys capturing the beauty of nature through design and art.

Cody is the 49th NZ delegate to the world final of Miss World on October 30 in Sanya, Hainan Province, China.
