Backstory
Tiana had a love for dancing from a young age. She joined a dance studio at age six and participated in dance competitions. She had stage fright but eventually grew out of it and realized how much she loved to dance. However, her parents hit hard times. Her mom lost her job. They no longer could afford to pay for her classes so they pulled her out. She was devastated. She would dance in her room but it wasn't the same feeling. She started working at 16 so she could pay for her own classes. She majored in business at an online college and at the age of 19, she moved to New York where she booked her first role in the Ensemble of off-Broadway musicals. After this her career kicked off and she got noticed by a talent agent. She booked other musicals and even was a background dancer for a few singers. She eventually moved on to TV and movie acting. She first met Andrew back at a stage production. They were costars and instantly connected. He was one of her first friends in this industry. They had been friends for years before they eventually both confessed their feelings.
