Her artistic journey took a noteworthy turn in 2006 when she auditioned for the second season of New Zealand Idol, although she did not advance past the early rounds. That same year, she recorded a self-titled demo and performed in various bars across the Philippines. In 2008, Janna’s talent was recognized by Kiwi rapper Joshua Webb, leading her to serve as a backing vocalist for the Parachute Music Festival, one of the largest Christian music festivals in the southern hemisphere. She contributed to several tracks for Webb and fellow artist Jzaman.

In 2009, Janna shifted her focus to acting and secured representation in Auckland, which opened doors for her in television and theater. Her modeling career took off after she completed a confidence course with the Dunedin modeling agency, where she became known for her petite stature. She was later celebrated as the 'Petite Model of the Week' by US-based blogger Isobella Jade.

Janna has familial ties to the entertainment industry, being related to notable figures like actress Juvy Cachola and beauty queen Jean Altavas. Her great-grandmother, Marcelina Cachola, was a World War II heroine, exemplifying the strength and resilience that runs in Janna's lineage.
