Mikella is from Boise. She graduated from Boise High School in Spring 2022 and is currently a full time student at University of Montana, Missoula. Mikella attended the Cascade Kayak School kids camp for numerous years which cultivated her love for all things river, including surfing. When she's not practicing to be an adult she likes to spend time with her family, friends, and make art. You could say she's ready to go and looking forward to the season!
