Early Life
Michaela Jean Estelle Mica Burton was born on July 8, 1994, in Los Angeles, California, to LeVar Burton and Stephanie Cozart. She has a half-brother named Eian Burton, with whom she grew up in a very close relationship. Mica was also very close to her father, with whom she spent a lot of time playing video games. LeVar has been an inspiration to her from the beginning, and Mica is extremely glad to have him as a father. During her childhood, she would spend time with her father playing video games, which served as a tremendous source of inspiration for her and helped her develop skills that she would utilize in the future.
Mica received her first costume when she was a young kid, and she would do it every time she watched her favorite television show, “Sailor Moon.” Mica’s first encounter with Rooster Teeth was through the television show Red vs. Blue when she was a child. Mica went on to study theatre and dance at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, where she graduated with honors. She subsequently went on to earn a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Theatre from the University of California, Los Angeles. While still in school, she expressed an interest in attending cosplay conventions.
Mica Burton Career
A young age saw Mica Burton begin her professional career when she began participating in various plays and productions. During an interview with Burnie Burns (which aired on June 3, 2016), Mica talked about her personal experiences with racism. The fact that she brought up the subject elicited an emotional response from certain members of the community, who labeled her remarks as “rants” and dismissed her concerns as unjustified because she hailed from a wealthy family. Consequently, she was subjected to a storm of harassment.
AHWU #317 was where Mica made the announcement that she has been hired to work in Achievement Hunter on May 16, 2016. She revealed in a blog post on the Rooster Teeth website that she had been keeping the news a secret since the Extra Life 2015 event. Until her leave, she served as Head of Streaming, editor, and secondary host for the company. Whenever she was featured in Achievement Hunter videos or on social media, she received a significant number of negative comments. Mica quietly departed Achievement Hunter a short time afterward to work as an editor and host for The Know, a podcast about technology.
On April 30, 2018, Mica announced her departure from Rooster Teeth and return to Los Angeles to pursue her acting, cosplaying, and modeling talents. On June 3, 2020, Mica disclosed that her departure from Rooster Teeth was a direct consequence of the company’s lack of support for her throughout the period of internet harassment. Her coworkers were more concerned about her father’s displeasure with the corporation than her health at the time of the harassment. Barbara Dunkelman, Geoff Ramsey, Jeremy Dooley, and others backed her up.
