Her father, aged 56, works as a farmer, while her mother, aged 54, serves as a barangay councilor. Her upbringing in a hardworking and community-oriented family has instilled in her strong values of responsibility, patience, and perseverance. Myla completed her secondary education at Corner Central National High School in 2007.

She has gained several years of non-domestic work experience, which helped her develop discipline and customer service skills.
