Miss Island Resort Teen 2025-2026
Greta Rebecca’s journey into the world of pageantry began with a moment of pure joy and excitement. In 2022, she was invited to be Little Miss at the Miss New Jersey pageant. That experience opened her heart to the magic of the stage in a whole new way, and she knew it wouldn’t be long before she stepped onto the stage as a contestant herself.
But Greta Rebecca was no stranger to performing. From the moment she could move, she danced. Her parents often joked that she was twirling before she could even walk. Her love for acting was woven deep into her family’s history, passed down through generations. Her father, Jonathan, was a talented performer who brought stories to life in high school, college, and even some Off-Broadway productions. His passion was rooted in the legacy of his own parents, who were dedicated community actors. Greta Rebecca’s artistic talents extended even further, influenced by her maternal grandmother, a gifted ballerina, and her paternal great-grandmother, a devoted music and piano teacher. The arts weren’t just a hobby for her, they were in her DNA. Her career has already placed her under bright lights and in front of admiring audiences. From musical theater productions to feature films, she has graced stages in Los Angeles, Philadelphia, and beyond. But what truly drives her is not just performing, but sharing her artistry and humanitarian spirit with those around her.








As she entered the pageant world, there was one lingering question: What would her community service initiative be? She spent days working with her pageant coach, searching for a cause that truly resonated with her. Time and time again, her heart returned to her father, not just to the night he passed away, but to the man he was and the impact his life had on her. From that reflection, her initiative was born: “Saving Lives, One Beat at a Time”. Greta Rebecca is CPR and AED trained by The American Red Cross.
For Greta Rebecca, pageantry is not just about the crown it’s about using her platform to honor her father’s legacy, share her passion, and make a difference in the world. She was recently crowned Miss Island Resorts Teen (2025-2026) and Miss Avalon Teen (2024-2025). Learn more about her work at www.JoinWithJonathan.org, a 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to her cause.
