Claudia Lopez has been involved with pageants for over 17 years. She started competing and eventually worked her way to the top and became a producer. Claudia married Sammy Lopez, Jr. in 2001 and together they have been a solid team and producers of various pageants, fashion shows and events through out the community. Since we have been producing pageants for 10 years now, we feel the need to bring something new and some change. Innermind Connection is restructuring itself and this can only mean.....you will only see bigger and better things.

Claudia has taken her hometown, Del Rio, Texas, by storm in developing fantasies that carry the audience through a journey of pageantry, glamour and elegance. Claudia has been tapped by talent scouts to participate in various pageants and model work. Everything from her hometown pageant to full exposure in the Dallas Apparel Mart experience, has made Claudia the leading authority of pageantry in her area.

We have formed a new team of Chaperones, Coordinators, Emcees and so on. The biggest thing is that Claudia and Sammy Lopez are a big part of TVAW ch 75 (more news on this soon) and all of their events are televised. Claudia has a televised tv show and she is also the host and reporter of What is Driving you Crazy, Tele Shop 75 and the Late Show. She also does special weekend news anchoring. Her husband Sammy is her Executive Producer and Camera Crew.

Don’t Just Win the Crown ....................Be a Role Model. Innermind Connection pageants are independently produced. We have been prelim directors and currently we still send our winners to state and or national pageants if they choose to want to advance. One thing we do stress is to maintain humble and royal at the same time. We like for our title holders to be approachable, liked and remembered for all their hard work and for giving back to the community.

In 2006 MTV filmed one of Claudia's pageants for a docmentary.

Sammy Lopez knows how to set the mood. Whether it's a cool summer night breeze you want to recreate or a sweltering heat wave of music, Sammy gets the job done. Only limited by his imagination, he's a member of an award-winning duo that produces, promotes and directs various events that keeps the audience on the edge of their seats. With professional style and flair that only a master sound and lighting technician can have, Sammy has been producing various events for sold-out crowds. He provides the perfect soundtrack as well as that perfect light making everyone look their best. Sammy has perfected a style that's second to none. Just toss an idea to him and see him run with it. From beginning to end and everything in between, Sammy leaves no detail out ensuring the production or event is as successful as it's going to get. But let's not forget Sammy is a certified personal trainer that keeps pageant delegates as fit as they can be. His training program puts the delegates to the test and always encourages the delegates to be as fit as they can be by providing perfect training courses and masterful techniques.
