Prior to her win, Saluta held the title of Hiyas ng Pilipinas-Continental World 2023 and was originally set to compete in the Miss Continental World 2024 pageant in Thailand.

A proponent of education and women’s empowerment, Saluta was appointed by the Hiyas ng Pilipinas organization to represent the country at Miss Elite World.
