At the age of 19, Mikayla started an agtech company called KinoSol, where they built solar powered food dehydrators for farmers in developing regions. Over the next 6 years as CEO, she led the company in launching our product in over 50 countries. When the pandemic hit, she jumped over to the VC side as the first hire at ISA Ventures, a $22M seed stage fund in Iowa. After a couple years there and a desire to focus back on food and agriculture, Mikayla had the opportunity to join Ag Startup Engine as a Venture Partner, building and leading their 3rd fund. In her free time, she can be found training for half Ironman races or planning her next international adventure!
