Minneapolis Divorce Mediator | Mikki
Divorce isn't just a legal process. It’s a financial decision-making process, a relationship transition and a deeply human experience, all at once.
That’s where Mikki’s work stands out.
As a family mediator and divorce finance professional (CDFA®), Mikki founded Great River Mediations to help courageous people navigate divorce privately and stay out of court as much as possible.
She understands that divorce can be a traumatic life event. People may be grieving the loss of their marriage and the future they imagined while facing one of the largest financial transactions of their lives.
Mikki's strength is bringing together two sides of divorce that are often treated separately: the numbers and the people behind them.
Outside of the office, you’ll find her playing pickleball, dancing or walking her big pup, Pops.

After decades in corporate marketing, and helping her husband run his businesses, Jenna is embracing a new chapter — one centered around what matters most for her.
“I serve Jesus and my family."
Jenna has a natural gift for connection. She loves finding that one thing people have in common, the thread that brings two people together and turns a conversation into a relationship.
Her warmth and genuine spirit came through beautifully during her photoshoot. Even the details she chose to bring had meaning: an anchor necklace honoring her late husband and the lake businesses they owned, and a cross necklace representing her faith.
Faith isn’t just something she wears, she puts it into action. This summer, Jenna traveled to Guatemala on a church mission trip where she helped build houses to break the cycle of poverty for families in need.
