   Jazmin was born in Los Angeles, CA on March 16, 1999, specifically in South Central Los Angeles, and raised in Inglewood, CA. She is a former foster; her form of healing from her childhood trauma occurred with creating art as it is a form of color therapy. As a teenager, she did not have a role model to look up to since she did not have parents anymore. She discovered an art community on Instagram. She had many different artists in that community that inspired her overall; some of these artists are Oliver Hibert, Kelsey Rubenstein, Peggy Noland, Marina Fini and Sideara St. Claire. Jazmin has been a designer for the clothing line “The Fabulous Stains” which is ran by Jessi Jae Joplin and is also created large scale sculptures for Jessi’s other business called “Manifest Party” which consists of underground raves or campout events. Jazmin sells her own art on Depop as well as Etsy and creates and sells psychedelic and outlandish themed furniture under the brand name “Chacha the Orphan Troll” while also being a high school art teacher. She also currently works as an After-School Art Program Leader for middle schoolers and has worked with children of all ages.
