In 2000, as Miss Veneto, Serugeri was one of the hundred national finalists of Miss Italia 2000 at Salsomaggiore Terme,[8][5] finishing among the top twenty-six.[9] Her participation is recorded in the roll of honour of the official history of the pageant published by Mondadori in 2009.[10] In 2001 she was profiled by the Verona magazine Un Mese a Verona ahead of a Miss Europe selection.[9]
