Biography

McKee was born in Macomb, Illinois, on January 14, 1994.[2][3] She grew up in Galesburg, Illinois, and graduated from Abingdon High School in nearby Abingdon, Illinois.[3] McKee's father was a fan of anime and tabletop role-playing games like Dungeons & Dragons; he introduced McKee to the medium.[4] She later got involved with theater. Being transgender, she was inspired by the actions of Laura Jane Grace, a transgender singer. This eventually motivated McKee to pursue a career voice acting in anime.[5]
