A New York City sanitation worker has been crowned Miss Staten Island after singing in front of the judges in her work outfit.

Nicole Doz, 23, won the title yesterday afternoon in the grand ballroom of the Congregation B’nai Jeshurun, in the West Brighton neighborhood of the borough.

The beauty queen announced in November last year she had landed her dream job at the city’s sanitation department, taking after her father and uncle.

During the talent portion of the Miss Staten Island pageant yesterday, Doz, who was one of the workers tasked with plowing the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway after the bomb cyclone that swept New York City earlier this month, proudly donned the grey pants and shirt she wears to work.

Doz sang I Feel Pretty from West Side Story, while holding a black garbage bag that she waved in front of her during her act.

In addition to showing off her powerful singing voice, Doz walked in the bikini portion of the pageant in a purple bathing suit, and was crowned while wearing a floor-length evening gown with a bejeweled neckline.

She looked over the moon when the results were announced and while she received her crown.

Along with her title, Doz received a $1,000 scholarship given by two former winners of the Miss Staten Island pageant, SILive reported.

Doz, who had previously competed in another edition of the Miss Staten Island pageant, as well as the Miss Brooklyn competition, landed her job with the Department of Sanitation after being selected out of a pool of 100,000 applicants.

The department only hires 500 people each year, meaning the spots are especially coveted.

‘What I really like the most about it is that it really shocks people, telling them what I do as my career,’ Doz told CBS 2 News during an interview last year. ‘They would never expect it.’

Doz has followed the footsteps of her father Joe and uncle Jayson, who have been cleaning up the streets of New York for decades.

The beauty queen said that from an early age, she knew what she wanted to do.

‘They always talked about how it was winning the lottery this job, how great it was,’ she said.

When Doz was hired, she was one of only 200 women in the department, and the only one on her route.

As a rookie, she operated the street sweeper, relegated to the graveyard shift from midnight to 8 am.

But she considered the work to be an honor and was happy to have the opportunity.

At the time, Doz was already looking forward to entering the Miss Staten Island pageant this January.

‘Even when I’m too old for pageants, I’m still going to wear the bikinis and the high heels,’ she added.

A starting salary for a sanitation employee is low, with an average of $33,746 for the first year.

But it jumps significantly after fives years, with most workers earning an average salary of $88,616 a year.

The number can significantly rise as well if overtime is factored into the equation, easily breaking the $100,000 mark.

When a bomb cyclone dropped eight to 15 inches of snow on New York City, Doz and her coworkers came out in the freezing temperatures to plow the city’s roads.

‘When we work in the snow we go full force,’ Doz told SILive at the time. ‘I am usually either in a spreader or a plow because that’s the most effective way to help clear the streets.’

Working to make sure the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway was clear gave Doz a sense of accomplishment.

‘It was really exciting to work with a group of people to plow the BQE,’ she added. ‘You really feel like you’re making a difference.’

New York City’s Department of Sanitation congratulated Doz on Twitter after her win yesterday, wishing her to nab the New York State crown next. The Miss Staten Island pageant is an official Miss America preliminary.

‘DSNY offers its best wishes to Sanitation Worker Nicole Doz who was selected Miss Staten Island on Sunday at the local Miss America competition,’ the department wrote. ‘Next stop. Miss NEW YORK STATE. Congrats.’
