A Future Legal Trailblazer with a Heart for Service

Mila Pearl, Miss Oregon’s Teen 2025, is a powerhouse of ambition, intellect, and compassion. Representing her hometown of Oregon City, Mila brings an unwavering drive to everything she does—from academic excellence to advocacy work to stage performance. Her long-term goal is to become a private criminal defense attorney, advocating for justice and standing up for those without a voice.

Academic Excellence and Bold Ambitions

Mila is a senior at Oregon City High School and a proud member of the National Honor Society. She currently holds a 4.20 GPA and serves as Media Manager for her school’s Black Student Union, where she helps uplift diverse voices and build inclusive conversations. After graduation, Mila plans to earn her degree in Criminal Justice and attend Yale Law School. Her dream? To challenge injustice and ensure every person has the right to a strong defense.

Fill A Plate: A Mission to End Hunger

Mila’s Community Service Initiative, Fill A Plate, focuses on eliminating food insecurity—a cause that has been close to her heart since childhood. She’s worked with the Feed the Hungry program since 2012 and continues to partner with local organizations to ensure every family has consistent access to nutritious meals. Her initiative combines compassion and action to make a lasting impact in her community.

Whole-Body Wellness and #MissAmericaFit

Mila’s approach to health and wellness is rooted in balance and mindset. She believes fitness isn’t about appearance—it’s about strength, confidence, and feeling good in your own body. Mila practices yoga, eats mindfully, and uses journaling as a tool for emotional health. Her approach reflects the values of the #MissAmericaFit initiative and encourages others to embrace wellness from the inside out.

A Performer with Big Broadway Dreams

A lover of musical theatre, Mila recently performed “Not for the Life of Me” from Thoroughly Modern Millie as her pageant talent. Her ultimate performance goal? To one day play Velma Kelly in Chicago on Broadway. With her bold stage presence and artistic spirit, she’s well on her way.

Fun Facts and Fierce Personality

Mila is full of energy and surprises. She’s a skilled chef, an expert on a pogo stick, and can land a roundoff and cartwheel without blinking. She learned how to surf during a trip to South Africa and re-watches Gilmore Girls with her mom every fall—it's their favorite tradition. One thing she can’t stand? Eating with her shoes on!
