“Mikaela was extremely detail oriented and took initiative. When I extended the offer to Mikaela to be my Chief of Staff I gave her no direction and she created her own. She immediately began to contact organizations and set up meetings, which was extremely essential in laying the groundwork for the platform in which I ran on. Mikaela was instrumental to the success of the Treasurer's office. She spearheaded multiple Student Government initiatives and was truly someone I could count on. Her character was above reproach. She was someone that everyone on the team looked up to and would come to for advice no matter what, myself included. Mikaela's hard work did not go unrecognized as she was the recipient of the University of South Carolina Leadership Award and the Treasurer Meritorious Award. I would recommend Mikaela to any employer as she will be a valuable asset wherever she goes. ”
