Traycee's love for movies, particularly horror films, was sparked by her father, who introduced her to the genre at a young age. Initially more interested in climbing trees, she eventually grew to appreciate storytelling through films. HBO became one of her closest friends and movies became a language.

Growing up, she aspired to be an actress but faced uncertainty after high school - she joined the Air Force at the suggestion of a friend, seeking to escape her small-town life and develop confidence and independence. Her time in the military instilled in her a sense of self-reliance, awareness, and resilience.

After serving honorably, her plans were delayed by the aftermath of 9/11. Eight years of service ended in an "honorable" medical discharge due to friendly fire.

She booked several acting roles and gained experience in the industry, but became frustrated with the waiting game. Her proactive spirit led her to take control of her career by creating her own opportunities. Inspired by the early wave of New Media, Traycee decided to start producing her own content (8.13, How to Survive a Horror Film), discovering a passion for filmmaking in the process. This decision marked a turning point in her career, allowing her to explore storytelling on her own terms.

Over the years, she has collaborated with notable companies such as Lionsgate, Legendary, and Nerdist, producing and working on various creative projects.

While filmmaking has become an essential part of her creative journey, acting remains her first love. Traycee's projects often explore bold, thought-provoking themes, especially in the horror/sci-fi genre.
