Joi was born in Hampton, VA on July 4th. Her ethnicity consists of African American, Native American and Filipino.

After college she moved to Atl, GA. The transition was a difficult one for her because she had never been away from her family for more than a few hours. Multiple trips back and forth from Atlanta to Hampton, vice versa for her family, she began to stand on her own two feet. At the age of 24, her father passed away suddenly experiencing an aneurysm in his sleep and then a massive stroke. It was at that point in her life in which she had to become a stronger individual, not only for herself but for the rest of her family. She learned so much from him! Though she learned how to be strong it was and still is devastating losing a father.

Modeling/photography are two of the many goals she is pursuing. She is loves the fashion industry and she believes both are an art form in which you do not just get it overnight. Her personality is what makes her stand out in the industry.
