Biography

Early Life and Background

Erika Diane was born on December 12, 2005, in Pennsylvania, United States, making her a Sagittarius. She grew up in a Christian family with three sisters—older sister Evelyn and younger sisters Josie and Emily—and a younger brother, Elliot. Her parents, whose names she keeps private, have Amish and Mennonite roots, and her mom, a former teacher, homeschooled Erika for most of her life. This gave her a flexible schedule to explore creative hobbies like making videos, which she started doing at age nine. Erika has said she’s curious about traditional high school but loves the freedom homeschooling offers. She’s always been drawn to cameras, inspired by YouTubers like Sydney Serena and Marla Catherine, which sparked her passion for content creation.
