Mckayla White's bio

Mckayla White is currently a full-time advertising student at Durham College and works part-time at the Durham College Student Association as a social media and marketing assistant. When she’s not in class or working, she can be found reading, playing cozy games on her Switch, or playing board games with her best friend and mom. She’s always trying new hobbies, with her most recent hobby being pottery.

A fun fact about Mckayla is that she’s studying to become a certified yoga teacher for fun. This travel lover hopes to one day earn her PhD, but in the meantime, she’s got the itch to explore the world.

As for her go-to caffeinated beverage? Mckayla says, “I am primarily a cold beverage type of girl (I love caramel iced coffees). My go-to hot drink is an oat milk chai latte.”
