I am Mikko Monro. I am a dancer, singer, actress, and model. Arts are my passion, and though I have hit a few bumps in the road, I know that I am walking the path of destiny. It's happening. NOW...

I have been on stage for as long as can remember, whether it was in the show, or running the show. In addition to harboring skills in theatre and runway, I have also served as a runway/stage coordinator for numerous projects nationwide. I have been in a quite a few commercials and independent projects, as well as print ads and voiceover work, all, which I attained as an agency represented and independent artist in Chicago and abroad. I also serve as an exclusive lifestyle manager for a few artists, actors, and models.

As for my recent work, I have worked on various sets including The Beast with Patrick Swayze, whom I was fortunate enough to have a scene with, and Leverage, for which the pilot was also filmed here in Chicago.  I am currently enrolled in classes at ActOne Studios for TV and Film. I'm also at The Second City Chicago, the worlds most prestigious Comedy School, and a member of The Freshmen, the world's greatest Improv Troupe.  I will not stop until I have reached ultimate success. My goal? To be consistent with my artistic endeavors with string of success that exhibit my natural ability to entertain and capture the room, the stage, and the world.
