After discovering the limitation of formal training, Mieka relocated back to Manhattan where she attended The New School to study MIDI, where she could have hands on training, while at the same time, held business as the Public Relations Coordinator for the infamous Satellite Records. In 2001 Mieka moved to Hollywood, California to attend The Musicians Institute, where she enrolled in the Recording Artist Program for extensive recording, studio production, and digital media, earning a certificate in Recor
