I’m Mikayla—a green-loving, dinosaur-obsessed, hopeless romantic with a passion for storytelling and making art. I love horror movies and I have a beautiful, silly golden doodle named Obi-won Kenobi. I'm pretty passionate about everything I do especially organizing. I’m still growing, still learning, and still figuring it all out—but I know I’m here to create with heart. And maybe leave behind a few dino doodles along the way.
