Suede's transition from an ambitious kid in the suburbs of Nevada to a starlet taking Los Angeles by storm may sound almost implausible, but it doesn't come as a surprise to most people who know her personally.

It all began in 2013, when Suede started her YouTube channel as a way to escape severe bullying in middle school. Within a matter of months, the channel, which focused mainly on fashion tips and make-up tutorials, became a sensation. Today, her self-titled YouTube channel has gained over 329,000 subscribers and over 16 million total views.

Now a full-time model, anti-bullying activist and content creator, Suede is renowned for her presence on Instagram and TikTok where she has gathered over 1.7 million followers and 1.3 million followers respectively.
