1.- Jorja, tell me about the city where you were born and raised. What do you like about your hometown?
I was born and raised in Campbelltown, NSW (Dharawal Country). What I like about Campbelltown and its surrounding suburbs is its unique diversity, this area also has lots to offer like beautiful walking tracks, swimming holes, which allows me to connect to my culture.
2.- What are your hobbies? What makes you laugh a lot or gives you joy?
My hobbies are singing, dancing, and modelling. I love playing sports, which includes netball, touch football, rugby league, and oz tag. Spending quality time with my loved ones is something that gives me eternal joy and happiness. I find joy in participating in cultural activities, which includes song and dance, this connects me to my ancestors.
3.- Miss Teen Australia Galaxy Pageant Finalist 2026. When did you decide to take your first steps as a model and beauty pageants? What feeling do you have achieving your dreams, your passions and being a recognized influencer woman today?
In 2023, I decided to take my first steps into modelling, starting with joining my agency, and walking in my very first KidzFashionWeek event in Sydney. Joining Australian Galaxy Pageants will be my first ever pageant, which is a huge dream of mine, achieving the goal of becoming a Miss Teen Australia Galaxy Pageant Finalist 2026 has made me realise that if you are determined and you set your dreams out they will become reality if you put my heart to what you desire. Determination and hard work has also helped me get to where I am today. Being recognised as a finalist, makes me so proud of who I am becoming.
4.- What do you think is the distinctive, unique stamp of Jorja in each activity carried out as a beauty queen and model?
I believe my distinctive, unique stamp as a beauty queen and model comes from my authenticity and the way I connect with people. In every activity, I strive to bring my true self, my values, my culture, and my personality, rather than just following trends or expectations. For me the unique mark of Jorja, is the balance between inner strength and showing that beauty, talent and impact come from being real.
5.- What is the main virtue that any woman must have to be an international model?
I believe the main virtue that anyone must have to be an international model, is authenticity, to be true to your unique, and authentic self. To build an international model status, it is important to understand what your purpose is and what you stand for both professionally and personally. Authenticity is what will sustain a meaningful career as an international model, because trends will change, but a woman who remains true to herself, her values, and her purpose will always stand out, inspire others, and leave a long lasting impact.
6.- Are you aware of being an influential woman for thousands of girls who want to be models? How important is it to you to be an idol for many girls and teenagers?
I am aware of the responsibility and it is something I deeply value. Knowing that many girls of all ages look up to me is both an honour and a motivation to keep being a role model for others. I do not see influence as being perfect, but as being honest, respectful and to always stay consistent with my values. If my journey can encourage girls to believe in themselves, stay true to who they are, work hard, and take care of their mental health, then I believe that that is the most meaningful part of my role as a model.
7.- What was your feeling the first time you modeled in front of a video camera? What did you feel the first time at a beauty pageant?
The first time I modeled in front of a camera, I felt a mix of emotions. I felt exposed and real because the camera captured every emotion, pose, and expression. At first, I was very self conscious, but once time passed I felt relaxed and focused on the moment, which made me start to enjoy the process and be present. That experience helped me gain confidence and taught me the importance of staying true to myself in front of the camera.
8.- What do you think about the power of social media today?
Think social media is an extremely powerful tool today. It has the ability to connect people from all around the world, and it can create opportunities that may not have been possible without the connection through social media. For models and influencers, it can be a platform to share their talent, express values, and build relationships with their followers/ audiences. In saying this, social media can carry a big responsibility, it can influence self esteem, beauty standards, and even the way young people may see themselves, which is why its important to use it consciously and authentically, promoting positivity, self respect, and to be real.
9.- How do you like to interact with your followers on social media? Whats your favorite social media?
I like to interact with my followers in a very genuine way. I enjoy sharing not only my modelling photos or my daily life, but also my culture, and my personal journey, especially my journey through mental health. I believe being open about my challenges makes the connection between myself and my followers more meaningful, and I hope that I can help others feel less alone, and more supported through their own journey. I love engaging through messages, comments or stories, because it allows for honest conversation and support. My favourite social media platform is Instagram, because it allows me to share my story, through photos, videos, captions, and I can express my journey and my values.
10.- What would you advise young people who have talent but do not dare to take the next step? What would you advise parents who do not support their children’s talents?
To young people who have talent, but are afraid to take the next step, my advice to you is to trust yourself, and start even if you feel scared. Fear is normal when you care about something, but it should not stop you from trying. You do not need to have everything figured out, growth comes from experience, mistakes, and learning along the way. Believe in your potential, prepare yourself, and remember that your talent has value. To any parents, I would say that encouragement and understanding can maje a huge difference in a young person’s confidence. Supporting a child does not mean having all the answers or agreeing with every choice, but it does mean listening, guiding, and believing in them.
11.- What important lessons have you learned from the world of fashion and beauty pageants?
An important lesson that I have learnt is that true beauty goes far beyond physical appearance. Confidence, kindness, intelligence, and authenticity are what truly make someone stand out and be remembered. Fashion and beauty has taught me the importance of self respect, setting boundaries, and staying true to my values.
12.- Jorja, being a model for you has been easy? Were there obstacles?How did you overcome obstacles?
Being a model has not been easy for me. Like any meaningful journey, it has come with many obstacles. There were moments of rejection, self doubt, and a pressure to fit into the standard that did not align with who I am. There were emotional challenges and times when I had to face uncertainty. I overcame those obstacles by staying connected to my purpose, and remembering why I started, focusing on personal growth, mental health, and having a strong support system really helped along the way. Every challenge became a lesson, instead of seeing them as a negative, I learnt to see them as an opportunity to grow stronger, more resilient, and more authentic.
13.- Have you thought about becoming an actress? . Do you like the entertainment industry?
Yes, I have thought about becoming an actress, I truly enjoy the entertainment industry. Making my TV debut in a NAIDOC advertisement was a very special and emotional moment for me. It was not just about being on the television for the first time, but about representing culture, identity, and community. Being apart of the advertisement that celebrated Aboriginal history, resilience, and pride made the experience incredibly meaningful.
14.- Worldwide, women have acquired a greater role even though there are societies where they are still abused. What is your opinion of the role of women in the future in these societies?
I believe the role of women in the future will continue to grow stronger, change may be slow in some places, but it is changing through education, awareness, and the courage of women who continue to speak up. Women are increasingly becoming leaders, educators, creators, and voices for change.
15.- Jorja, what is your motivation and what do you feel grateful for every day?
My motivation comes from many places, but above all my family and my community. My family has always been my foundation, giving me strength, love, and guidance. Im especially motivated by my pop, someone who I shared a deep bond with, his passing was one of the hardest moments of my life, but his wisdom, love, and belief in me continues to guide me everyday. Im deeply grateful for my community, for my culture, the support and sense of belonging I receive, is something I truly treasure. It reminds me of where I come from and keeps me grounded, no matter where my journey takes me. I am also grateful for my younger self, for the girl who kept dreaming, kept going through the difficult moments, and never gave up even in the uncertainty.
16.- Jorja, Do you like to travel? What countries do you know? What other countries would you like to know and which places do you recommend to visit from your country?
Yes, I love to travel! Experiencing new cultures, meeting people, and seeing the world from different perspectives is something that truly excites me. So far, I have been to New Zealand and the Pacific Islands. In the future, I would love to visit the Maldives, Greece, and America. From my own country, I would recommend seeing the whole of Australia every part has something unique to offer.
