Carrie Lee began her career as a pageant organizer over a decade ago with the Miss Chinese Cosmos International Pageant, promoting the beauty and talent of women worldwide. [6] In 2017, she rebranded the event as Miss CosmoWorld, [7] expanding its reach internationally while maintaining its Malaysian roots. [8] [9]

Miss Cosmo World's mission focuses on promoting Malaysia's heritage and culture on an international platform.
