Before YouTube
Kassie grew up with two siblings; an older brother and a younger sister. She was born in Lethbridge, Alberta, Canada, but spent most of her childhood in Singapore. After returning to her homeland, she started elementary school. She was often racially bullied due to her physical appearance representing that of a Chinese person. She started to combat this with violence as her self-esteem went down.

During middle school, she met a girl named Ashleigh who she would later become best friends with later. Near the end of Kassie's middle school years, Ashleigh switched schools and Kassie's family encountered problems that caused more anxiety for her. She did not often open up to others as she didn't want others to feel pity for her.

Kassie describes her high school years as a nightmare. She skipped her classes more than she attended them in her final two years and she wouldn't take care of herself. She later learns that she and her sister has clinical depression.

She joined a college with her brother, where she improved her grades and got scholarships along with an invite to a university.

Within the first few months of her first semester in university, she ran into numerous health issues which caused her to feel fatigued and insecure. She tries battling her depression with anti-depressants which made her feel suicidal, spontaneous, and irritable. After getting severe emotional difficulties, she withdrew from university and went on numerous diets only to worsen her situation. She soon gave up her dietary habits and medications, and in her case, she explains that it was an incredible impact on her life. She later returns to university. She later met a friend of her older brother named Terry. She and her sister often joked with him and found him humorous. Terry becomes her boyfriend at some point in time.
