Colorful, humorous, curious

Who do you want to partner with?

Mikayla radiates a warm and caring energy everywhere she goes. She brings integrity, a critical eye, and a thoughtful approach to all of her design research and strategy work. I am so lucky and grateful to be able to call her both a friend and a colleague. She is thoughtful, intelligent, crafty, and the ultimate thrift and skincare queen. If you ever can’t find her, she’s probably at the library or TJ Maxx.
