Early life
Micaela Wittman was born in Rhinebeck, New York and raised in Arizona. She was raised as a Jehovah's Witness in a strict family before deciding to drop out of high school to pursue her acting career.

Career
Wittman is known for her titular role in the Gravitas Ventures film Clairevoyant (2021) which was nominated for a 2021 British Independent Film Festival award. Most of the interview segments in the film were shot over the course of one day and later edited together to form the basis of the script. Made on a budget of 3,000 dollars in the run-and-gun tradition, it was later sold internationally at the Marché du Film after six months of production, mainly shot on the weekends. Because of her ability to make films on low budgets, Wonderland Magazine cited her as an "indie film goddess."

In addition to making low-budget films, she recurred as Tara Raeken, the sister of Theo Raeken, in the MTV supernatural drama Teen Wolf. She also appeared as Katie Holmes in A.P. Bio and Maggie in the Netflix film ''Shirley. ''

In 2022 she published the coming of age novel, Remy & Arletta, which was based on a true story about two teenagers who lean on their friendship to get through troubling teenage years. It was adapted into a film which premiered at Outfest 2022, before being released in theaters fall of 2023. The story chronicles her own relationship with her alcoholic and abusive mother, and incorporates her experience as a Jehovah's Witness.

In May 2023, V included her in the annual "The Next Act series" by Hedi Slimane.
