Miami raised her, and the Dominican side of her family is about as much as she has ever confirmed about where she came from. The rest of the origin story — what she did before, what pulled her toward this work, what the transition looked like — she has chosen not to tell, and after a career that has stretched across well over a decade she shows no sign of changing that position. What she has offered publicly is mostly the persona: confident, unbothered, in on the joke when there is one. She still describes herself as single and says she is attracted to both men and women, which tracks with the range of her work. She has not retired, has not had a public scandal, has not written a memoir or launched a podcast. For a performer with her longevity, that absence of narrative is itself a kind of statement — she seems to have decided that the work is the work and the life is the life, and the two do not need to meet in public.
