This small town girl certainly has big dreams and a big appetite for success. Growing up she was one of the superior athletes in the area, starring in both basketball and softball.  Even though she was making a huge splash in the modeling industry, the "tom boy" in her couldn't quite let sports go, so she decided to try out for the Tampa Breeze of the lingerie football league. Mikayla became the face of the franchise. So much so that she was 1 of 9 girls chosen to do a special for the Feb 2011 edition of Playboy, in which she graced the front cover.

Mikayla's career continued to flourish when she was chosen to become one of the cast members of reality television series "CBS Survivor" Season 23. Mikayla quickly became a fan favorite on the show.
