Telah was born and raised in California’s Bay Area. After high school she spent a year studying photography at the City College of San Francisco, and then moved to Tauranga, New Zealand to study Theology at the South Pacific Bible College. Once completing the two year college in Tauranga, she moved back to the Bay Area and started work in the beauty industry. After two years, she packed her bags again and left for Washington state. There, Telah spent four years working for the largest online retailer of real fossils in the world, photographing fossils and minerals.

While living in Washington she became a Master Certified Health Coach through Dr. Sears Wellness Institute; she specializes in High Carb Plant Based Eating. She also received her green belt in Muay Thai through United Source Muay Thai where she studied boxing and Filipino martial arts.

After 4.5 years of Washington’s grey skies and rain, Telah started researching states that had mild winters and hot summers. Google led her to St. George. Telah has lived in St. George since October 2021. She spends her free time doing Animal Rights Activism and enjoys life with her better half, Sean, and their dog Ellie Bean.
