Early life and education

She studied at Baguio City National High School and finished her college education at Saint Louis University with a degree in Tourism Management.[4][7]
Pageantry
Face of Tourism 2019
On April 7, 2019, Baeyens competed at the Face of Tourism Philippines 2019 pageant.[8] Leading up to the competition, she won the three special awards Face of Wellness, Face of Elegance, and Face of Festivity.[9] She advanced to the final question and answer round, where she was asked why should she win the crown. In her response, she emphasized her background in tourism as a means of encouraging others to "only to help the environment, contribute to the economy of the Philippines but teach them even with the small act of goodness, it could lead to something big".[10]
At the end of the event, she was named the winner. As the national titleholder, she represented the country at the Miss Tourism and Culture Universe pageant in Myanmar in September, where she was named as the first runner-up.[11][12]
Miss Philippines Earth 2020
In June 2020, Baeyens entered the Miss Philippines Earth 2020 pageant, representing Baguio.[13][14] In an interview with Rappler, she cited her mother's profession as an environmentalist as a motivation for joining the pageant.[15] In the preliminary round, she won four special awards: Darling of the Press, the Eco-Video award, Beauty of Face, and Best Covid Craze outfit.[16][15][17]
Competing in the pageant's first virtual coronation edition due to quarantine restrictions from the COVID-19 pandemic, Baeyens advanced to the final question-and-answer round.[16][7][18] All top five contestants were all asked about an important quality needed in a leader during a pandemic.[19][20] In her answer, Baeyens emphasized the need for a leader to have a "green thumb" to address food shortages and promote sustainability.[21][22]
At the end of the event, Baeyens was announced as the winner, succeeding Janelle Tee and defeating 33 other candidates,[23][24][25][26]
Miss Earth 2020
As Miss Philippines Earth, Baeyens represented the country at the virtual Miss Earth 2020 pageant. In the preliminary competition, she wore an evening gown designed by Rian Fernandez inspired by the comic character Darna and a national costume by Jorick Lopez Limpag inspired by the Philippine creation myth Malakas at Maganda.[27] She would win the Best in Long Gown award together with the Best in Talent award for the dancing category.[28]
At the end of the event, Baeyens was named Miss Earth Water, with Lindsey Coffey of the United States as the winner.[29]
Miss Universe Philippines 2026
During the GMA Gala in August 2025, Baeyens revealed that she was considering a return to pageantry through Miss Universe Philippines and hoped to represent Baguio should she decide to do so.[30] On February 2, 2026, the Baguio partner of the pageant formally appointed Baeyens as their candidate for Miss Universe Philippines 2026.[31]
Entertainment career
As an artist, she is signed with Cornerstone Entertainment Inc.[11][32][33] After joining the agency, Baeyens has pursued acting under the screen name "Roxie Smith". She is part of the Sparkada, a group of seventeen artists of this generation of Sparkle—the talent management arm of GMA Network.
Advocacies
Baeyens is an advocate for urban gardening, animal welfare, and HIV/AIDS awareness.[15][34] During the COVID-19 pandemic, she spearheaded a feeding drive to feed several dogs and cats left on the streets.[35] Following the onslaught of Typhoon Ulysses in the Philippines and Vietnam in November 2020, she launched the fundraising event “Live Selling for a Cause”.[36]
