In this episode of ADHD for Smart Ass Women, Tracy introduces you to 21 year-old, Mikayla Kee. Mikayla is currently a senior, finishing her bachelor's degree at The Evergreen State College in Washington. She will be entering the Master's in Teaching program next. Mikayla also volunteers as a para educator at a local elementary school and, in true ADHD fashion, Mikayla has been doing all of this while working as a semi professional soccer player for the past three years.
Mikayla shares:
- The circumstances surrounding her ADHD diagnosis
- Her ADHD symptoms
- Her struggles during her first year in college
- How collegiate athletics is the perfect ADHD complement to her education?

- What has changed since she was diagnosed?
- The ADHD traits that she feels are responsible for her success
