For over a decade, Ionica Fung has graced the world of modeling with her beauty, elegance, and passion for the art of fashion. Her journey, marked by magazine covers, photoshoots, and pageant crowns, has been fueled by a deep-rooted love for all things beauty—fashion, makeup, and creativity.
“I’ve been modelling for over 10 years,” Ionica shares. “Ever since I was a little girl, I’ve been inspired by beauty and fashion. What started as a childhood dream has turned into something far beyond what I imagined. I’ve been featured in calendars, romance novel covers, and even publications for various magazines.” Most recently, Ionica added to her list of accomplishments by winning the titles of Mrs. Swimsuit Beauty Canada Nation Universe 2024 and Mrs.
Niagara Falls Nation Universe 2024. She is now preparing for the next chapter in her journey, where she will compete at an international beauty pageant in Miami this November – Miss Nation Universe 2025.
For Ionica, modelling isn’t just about posing for pictures or walking runways—it’s about representing new fashion trends and helping designers build demand. “It’s not always easy,” she says. “Being a model means meeting high standards and working in different mediums like photoshoots, music videos, and print publications. But if you have confidence, you can make your dreams come true.”
As Mrs. Niagara Falls Nation Universe 2024, Ionica is eager to merge her experiences and title into a cohesive brand that strengthens her modeling career. “I’m still figuring out how to best incorporate my title,” she admits, “but I want to use everything I’ve learned over the years to build my platform, increase my social media reach, and bring visibility to the causes I care about.”
When asked about her vision for the future, Ionica’s thoughts turn to her daughter, Sofia, who has already shown a natural talent in front of the camera. “I want to be a role model for my daughter if that’s the path she wants to take,” Ionica says. “We’ve done a few photoshoots together, and she’s so comfortable in front of the lens. Beyond that, I’d love to use my experience to help new models navigate the industry and maybe even become an agent to coach other women.”
Ionica is also working on growing her platform by attending events and building relationships within the industry. “I plan to travel more, meet people, and learn as much as I can,” she explains. She hopes to walk the runways at upcoming shows in Miami and other international fashion events across Europe and beyond.
Breaking stereotypes is another important part of Ionica’s mission. “Many people think if you have beauty, you don’t have brains,” she says. “But I believe you can have both. With confidence, intelligence, and beauty, you can be a winner. It’s about having the courage to try.”
In addition to her modelling career, Ionica is also a proud mother to two children, 11-year-old Kyan and nine-year-old Sofia, and she has a passion for hairstyling and makeup artistry. “I love being around my family, and friends, and I’m passionate about travelling, creating, and learning,” she says. “Life is a journey, and I’m excited to continue discovering, growing, and enjoying all the opportunities it brings.”
Ionica Catalina’s journey is a testament to her resilience, passion, and drive to empower herself and others. As Mrs. Niagara Falls Nation Universe 2024, she stands as a role model for women everywhere, proving that beauty, intelligence, and ambition can go hand in hand.
