Journalistic Journey

Growing up with an active imagination and a love for words, Mikayla often found herself writing everything from haikus to chapter books. She took her first journalism class in high school and was immediately hooked. After spending 3 years writing for her high school newspaper, The Roar, and serving as Editor-In-Chief, Mikayla attended Florida Atlantic University with a focus on Multimedia Journalism. While ultimately deciding on a career path focused on Social Media Management, her time spent studying journalism led to an appreciation for fact-finding and verbal accuracy that has greatly helped Mikayla in her professional career.

Curated Content

Mikayla’s main focus at Rock Paper Simple is to create the best possible social media content for our clients and ensure that our Marketing Partners’ online presence is unforgettable. Mikayla is experienced in copywriting, content creation, blogging, and branding – she has managed social media for businesses and nonprofit organizations. One of Mikayla’s favorite parts is working alongside the creative team to make a client’s vision for their social media platforms come to life and the collaborative process among team members. While Mikayla’s work keeps her mostly behind the scenes, she has a passion for nonprofit work. She enjoys collaborating on social media posts for clients that focus on bettering their community, such as The Children’s Hunger Project and Brevard Family Partnership.

Personal Life

Mikayla has a passion for interior design and can often be found organizing her vintage glass jar collection or adding a framed map or portrait to one of her gallery walls. On the weekends, you can find Mikayla curling up with her two Siamese cats while listening to kpop, adding to her collection of houseplants, or thrift shopping for hidden treasures. She is a self-proclaimed nerd specializing in Dungeons and Dragons, the history of the British monarchy, and video games. Other hobbies include collecting rare editions of The Great Gatsby, getting tattooed, musical theatre, and traveling the country with her little family. Mikayla would say that her best party trick is being able to (mostly) name the Disney Princesses in chronological order.
