As a child, I was captivated by the world of entertainment and other creative pursuits. Whenever my mom played music while tidying up the house, you could find me nearby, choreographing dance routines and imagining it was my voice that echoed through the speakers. Dubbed "Singing, Dancing Jarriae," I eagerly showcased my creative talents in elementary school talent shows.

My vivid imagination extended beyond just dancing, however. I engaged others in my adventures through writing, such as through my "The Mystery of The Stolen Diamond" series for the school's annual original book competition when I was eight years old, which has been a passion.

Additionally, my enthusiasm for fashion and style was evident even in those early days — with my mom ensuring I was always adorned in the latest and greatest. This blend of creative outlets not only highlighted my love for the arts but also underscored a burgeoning interest in expressing my individuality.
