She had her first taste of acting when she starred in a school play at St. Linus elementary school. She went on to attend Whitney High School where she received a Performing Arts Award.

She then graduated from UCLA, where she studied Economics, Accounting, as well as Theatre and Dance, and received a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Economics. She was a member of the UCLA Dance Team for three years, cheering for UCLA football and basketball games. She also had the opportunity to perform and compete all over the United States and abroad.
