Mikela is a freelance copywriter and editor living in Austin, TX with her husband, son and dog. She’s a pop culture obsessive, who once dreamed of having the fashion sense of Clarissa Darling, the hair of Rachel Greene, and the career path of Rory Gilmore. These days she juggles the full-time freelance life with new motherhood and can often be found furiously trying to get work done during naptime. She is 75% dry shampoo and 25% iced coffee.

In addition to her contributions to CultureMap, Mikela has contributed to Austin Monthly Magazine, Tribeza, and many more. Find her work at mikelafkinnison.com
