    Mikayla grew up immersed in sport before finding her love of the pool, quickly establishing herself as a talented swimmer with aspirations of reaching the highest levels internationally. Years of intense training and racing took her around the world competing across multiple swimming disciplines and distances, developing the resilience, work ethic and competitive edge that now underpin her triathlon career.
    Like many athletes, the COVID-19 pandemic forced Mikayla to reassess her pathway when pool closures and training disruptions changed the trajectory of her swimming career. Rather than stepping away from elite sport, she embraced a new challenge in triathlon, transferring her endurance background and competitive mentality into professional racing.
