Hailey was born and raised in Boise Idaho. Her family recognized her potential to be an artist in her early years, as talent first emerged through a natural aptitude for drawing and painting. At the young age of eleven, Hailey's gift was harnessed through a scholarship to a private arts school, providing her her first formal training in the fine arts, writing, and music. It was there that she was also introduced to the thrill of theater.
During that sixth grade year, she was persuaded by her best friend to audition for her first play. Hailey fell madly in love with the theater arts, and storytelling, which have become her soul purpose in life. She went on to be classically trained for seven years, landing her first lead roles in renowned productions such as Macbeth, Taming of the Shrew, The Crucible, and Antigone, along with a handful of modern plays. She tried her hand at set and costume design, continually surpassing the expectations of her teachers and audiences. During this time she also received several accolades for her writing, poetry and spoken word.
Hailey is now a film director, and actress. She directed her first music video at the age of 17 for a band in Idaho. Inspired by her entrepreneurial instincts, she opened her own film production business, Lioness Studios, an eclectic creation company, at the blossoming age of 18. She studied at a small film school in San Diego receiving her bachelors in just three years. She has directed, written, and starred in a handful of short films and features.
