Olga Romanovna Mikutina (Ukrainian: Ольга Романівна Мікутіна) is an Austrian figure skater competing in Ladies' Singles. She was born on 6 October 2003 in Kharkiv, Ukraine.
Olga is a three-time Austrian national champion (2020–2021, 2024), as well as a two-time Austrian national junior champion (2019–2020).
Olga took up skating in 2007 at the age of four. She began her skating career competing for her native Ukraine, and by age 12, was already a three-time Ukrainian youth national champion. When she was 12, her parents decided that she needed better training conditions than were available in Ukraine, and were advised to seek out coach Elena Romanova in Feldkirch, Austria. Olga would later remark that "at first I didn’t realize that we were really moving there. I thought we were just training there for some time." She began competing for Austria at the advanced novice level internationally in 2016. She subsequently became an Austrian citizen in January of 2020.
In August 2023 Olga moved to Montclair (New Jersey, USA) to study Business Administration at Montclair State University. She is training there together with the Israeli National Team and coaches Galit Chait, Aleksei Bychenko, and Evgeni Krasnopolskiy. Her main coach remains Elena Romanova, who is working with Olga remotely and also accompanying her to competitions.
