Mikaela Brewer is a writer, speaker, researcher, mental health
advocate, and the author of The Sifting Project, her first novel.
She is also a proud Stanford Women's Basketball alumnae and a
former member of Team Canada. Alongside a good cup of coffee,
Mikaela lives for research and writing projects that capture her
curiosity. A multi-disciplinary writer, she has written poetry,
fiction, neuroscience and sports psychology research, news, op-eds,
and features for a variety of platforms and organizations. Mikaela
is currently the Director of Writing at Magnify Wellness and the
Director of Content at Timeout. She passionately explores the
intersection of biology and storytelling as she learns to live
alongside mental illness.
Mikaela believes in the voice of change unique to stories and the
way fiction feels like the lyrics of people. These beliefs are
braided into the backbone of The Sifting Project, a story that
seeks to challenge beliefs, motivate, and comfort, all while
watering the root of magic. She hopes her writing will breathe and
be a song that guides you as you walk through life. Mikaela also
loves comics, the piano, chocolate, and reading. She is the oldest
of six children and is guided by listening to, admiring, and
learning from the sense of wonder and curiosity in their stories.
