Mickie graduated from SUNY At Albany in 2012 with a degree in English Creative Writing and Communication, and have enjoyed been part of the Smile Monster Project for around 3 years running. When I first joined, I had been dealing with some major depression issues, but surrounding myself with the positive energy and community benefits that Team Smile Monster brings to the table has helped me immensely, and has significanty impacted the quality of my personal life and those around me.
Aside from SmileMonster, I work in an office environment as a high speed data specialist and genuinely enjoy my work. I also am working on a number of amateur writing projects in my spare time.
