The external forces of drugs, violence, and poverty exude the power of influence, yet Kay's internal quest for absolute freedom through acting could not be ignored.Kay was accepted into Harvard University's American Repertory Theater/Moscow Art Theatre School Institute in 2013. Her intense desire to achieve greatness and personal freedom pointed Kay to the theater. She has been given the opportunity to channel her once private emotions and experiences in a positive manner.In 2004, Kay obtained a B.A. in Communications and a M.A. in Public Relations from Michigan State University, however it led Kay to sitting behind desks, observing human behavior versus standing on stages illuminating human behavior.

The film industry started taking the city by storm after Hurricane Katrina, and Kay subconsciously wanted to know more about it.Kay started as a featured background artist, yet she was handpicked by four Academy Award winners and nominees.
