Mika attended Claremont McKenna College before graduating from the University of Chicago Law School. She has extensive experience in the legal field; she clerked for the (ret.) Honorable Christopher S. Sontchi in the Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware and worked as a corporate bankruptcy litigator for five and a half years in Delaware and New York before returning to consulting and teaching.
She was offered acceptance to several prestigious law schools, including Washington University in St. Louis, the University of Michigan, the University of Virginia, Vanderbilt, and the University of Chicago. Mika's experience as a brief-writing litigation associate meant learning to express topics in ways that judges could grasp: a skill she now imparts upon pre-law students. She is an adept writer, editor, and coach dedicated to helping pre-law students present their best selves in the admissions process.
