Tyshawnda Shardi Lakeysha Griffin was born on November 28, 2005, to Lashawnda Brown and Gregory Griffin Sr. in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. From an early age, Tyshawnda embraced her faith and accepted Christ as her Lord and Savior, which became a source of strength throughout her life. As the fourth child of six, she was blessed with a loving family. At just five years old, Tyshawnda embarked on a new adventure by moving to California, where she excelled academically and proudly graduated from Lawndale High School in 2023.
