Mikaela Jenkins

Majoring in Molecular Biology
Grove City College, Class of 2025
From Evansville, IN

I was born with Proximal Femoral Focal Deficiency and had a left Symes amputation at 8 months old. Through my disability, I have been able to swim at an elite level on the US Para National Team. I competed at my first Paralympic Games in Tokyo in 2021, walking away with 2 Paralympic Gold medals in my 100 meter fly and the 4x100 medley relay.
