Sontchi in the Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware and working as a corporate bankruptcy litigator for five and a half years in Delaware and New York before returning to teaching.

Mika earned her Bachelor’s degree in economics and psychology from Claremont McKenna College. After submitting a competitive application, she was offered acceptance to several prestigious law schools, including Washington University in St. Louis, the University of Michigan, the University of Virginia, Vanderbilt, and the University of Chicago. She ultimately chose to complete her JD at the University of Chicago.

As an admissions mentor, Mika employs the "TEACH" approach, emphasizing trust, empowerment, appreciation, communication, and humor to motivate and engage her clients. Her greatest strengths are narrative building and editing. As a former litigator with extensive writing experience and a passion for creative writing, Mika excels at helping students shape and articulate their personal stories with exceptional clarity. Additionally, her extensive legal experience provides unparalleled insight into how to strategically position students for long-term success.

In her free time, Mika loves to roller skate, dance, and play board games with friends. She is also a lifelong learner and is particularly interested in classical, medieval, and Victorian-era history.
