Mikaela graduated from UNI with degrees in Biology and Public Health & Education. Mikaela is now at Allen in their Accelerated BSN program. This is her second year being in UNI Dance Marathon, and fifth year in Dance Marathon in general!
Favorite DM Memory: "My favorite DM memory was having my grandma cut my hair for donation at the 2021 big event."
DM Why: "I dance to serve the kids and families that shape our community. No one should have a childhood of hospital visits, surgeries, treatments, needles, or pokes. Beyond the monetary donations, our cause supports some of the most vulnerable populations by facilitating amazing emotional and physical connection. Everyone does have the power to make an impact on future generations. To me, Dance Marathon is all about inspiring and empowering others to join the movement, and becoming equipped to change kids' health and changing the future."
Fun Fact: Mikaela has eaten ice cream every day since April 16th, 2021!

Favorite DM Memory: "My favorite part of UNI DM is building relationships with our miracle kiddos, families, and other members!
