Renata de Jesús Soñé Savery (born August 6, 1982, in New York City) is a Dominican-American psychologist and beauty pageant titleholder who competed in the Miss Universe 2005 pageant, finishing 2nd runner-up after winning Miss Dominican Republic 2005.
At six months of age, Soñé was left in the care of her grandparents after her mother's death. She went on to pursue a degree in clinical psychology before participating in the Miss Dominican Republic pageant. Of her long term career goals, Soñé has said she wishes to found a children's institute to continue her interests as a psychologist. To this end, she has been the spokesperson of many campaigns headed by Dominican Attorney General Rossana Reyes designed to discourage child neglect, and curtail the high number of abandoned children through education and public awareness.
Prior to winning the national title pageant, Soñé was a professional model with Ossygeno Model Management, appearing in several Dominican fashion periodicals. Soñé has since become the official face of Pantene shampoo, Avon, and Esbelle weight loss product.
Soñé competed in the Miss Dominican Republic 2005 pageant on April 9, 2005, representing Distrito Nacional, where she won the title and gained the right to represent the Dominican Republic at Miss Universe.
She went on to compete in the Miss Universe 2005 pageant held in Bangkok, Thailand, where she finished third overall (2nd runner-up), ahead of Mónica Spear (Venezuela) and Laura Elizondo (Mexico) and behind Cynthia Olavarría (Puerto Rico) and winner Natalie Glebova (Canada). She appears in the Miss Universe Organization's book "Universal Beauty" as the contestant with the best body in the history of the pageant.
