In February 2025, Milla showcased her exceptional skills by winning the inaugural Natural Selection Surf event, demonstrating her versatility and adaptability in heavy water surfing conditions.

In July 2023, Milla clinched the under-18 title at the Skullcandy Pro Junior in Lennox Head. She achieved an impressive 19.40 out of a possible 20 points in the under-16 category and continued her stellar performance in the under-18 Skullcandy Oz Grom Open.
