Milly Ortiz

My name is Milly Ortiz and I am 16 years old. I am a sophomore at Gretna East High School in Omaha Nebraska. I love to sing and dance and attend Broadway Musicals any chance I get! I also love to swim and hang out with my two cousins, Declan and Kynlee. I have two dogs, Daryl and Walter who also love to swim and hang out with us in the pool.

I have experienced and overcome a lot in my life including countless illness, surgeries, procedures, and hospitalizations all related to my diagnosis of Pulmonary Hypoplasia which is a lung condition I was born with.

I am honored to be the Nebraska 2025 Teen Queen and represent Nebraska at Nationals in July. I decided to enter the Miss Amazing pageant to help build my confidence, meet new friends and prove to myself that despite any challenges I may face, I can do anything!
