A true Minnesotan lake gal, Mia's originally from Detroit Lakes, MN, graduated from the University of Minnesota - Duluth in 2021 with a BA in Theatre and a minor in Applied Dance (& a BAS in Psychology, if you’re the curious type), and co-founded Budding Heads in 2025 with her fiancé, Wesley Tilford.
