She was also inclined towards performing arts from an early age, but she never had a chance to prove her talents in her early years. After high school, she enrolled at the University of Tennessee, from which she obtained her Bachelor’s degree.
Career Beginnings
After graduating, she moved to Washington DC where she found a job on Capitol Hill. However, she realized that politics wasn’t suited for her, and she moved to Atlanta to pursue a career in the music business.

Although she had her own songs, she just couldn’t find a great production team, and couldn’t land a record deal that suited her desires.
She made many friends in the city thanks to her eponymous performances, but after talking with a friend who was her stylist, she realized she had a sense for fashion. Thus encouraged, she set out on the search for a job as a stylist.

In the summer of 2015, the production team was on an hiatus, when she received a ‘phone call from the studio with an offer to become the new costume designer, along with a position of Tyler Perry’s personal stylist.
