The 23-year-old passed away on Thursday after being on life support for several weeks following what is understood to be a horse riding accident, News.com.au reports.

Sienna appeared as one of 27 finalists for Australia’s Miss Universe back in 2022.

The late model was previously told Gold Coast Magazine: "My family isn’t exactly sure where this passion comes from, but I’ve been riding since I was 3 years old and can’t imagine life without it.

"I travel to rural Sydney 2-3 times a week to train and compete every other weekend in New South Wales or wider Australia."

She also spoke about her passion for English literature, specifically poetry, and how it was a great medium to connect people with one another.

"I love representing myself in the best way possible by writing my own poetry, but I also find it fascinating to find a common experience with people from completely different walks of life," Sienna said.
