Emilie comes from France, and Randy was born in Taiwan. Emilie was born and brought up in the suburbs of Paris. While she was a student there, she earned extra money by modeling for one of the top fashion houses in France. After high school, Emilie wanted to study fashion and spent three years in college to learn the business. Her parents were not pleased with her decision to study the arts.

After she looked for several months, she had to make a difficult choice: give up her dream or leave her family and get a job in the United States.
