Jahyra "Jay" Sherie's writing journey started in high school after her "first" heartbreak. Though her actual first heartbreak came from her father, she took all of that pain and added it to this new pain while letting her pencil tell the stories. Soon, she started finding who she was without anyone and continued to love herself through all the many stages of grieving her past self, reconnecting with her inner child, and being comfortable with the instability of growth.

Through music, love, and multiple heartaches thereafter, Jay has created so many pieces of work that she couldn't keep to herself any longer. After multiple open mic nights and great feedback from loved ones, the journey began.
