Early Life and Education

McKenzi Brooke Howey was born on December 27, 2003, in the United States, with sources inconsistently citing her birthplace as California or Florida. She was raised in a supportive Christian family by her parents, Arianne Howey, a housewife active on Instagram (@momzeeee), and Mark Howey, a businessman who passed away, as noted in a 2024 Instagram post by McKenzi.

She grew up with her younger brother, Reif Howey, a fellow TikTok star, with whom she shares a close bond. McKenzi developed a passion for dancing at age six, starting with formal classes before teaching herself.

At age two, she was diagnosed with Influenza A, which severely affected her muscles, temporarily preventing her from walking between fifth and sixth grade, leading to homeschooling from fifth to eighth grade. She completed her early education at a local high school, graduating in 2021, and has not publicly enrolled in college, focusing instead on her career as a content creator and actress.

Her American nationality and Christian faith are noted, with no specific mention of ethnicity beyond likely Caucasian descent.
