A conversation with Sequoia Rhian

"Performer is the word that sums up what I do. You can find me on a stage doing theatre, sharing my own music, or in front of the camera. I prefer my name as my pronoun, but they/them is good is well. I started acting in my elementary school and church. I also would write songs with my brother to perform to our family. My first community theater performance was in 7th grade, which was also the time that I started writing music seriously. I focused on my rap career off and on, mainly doing music with a Christian theme. I decided to fully pursue acting and music, so I left my small town in Wisconsin, and moved to Minneapolis. So far, this city has been a dream. It's helped me to continue to grow into the person I am daily."
