Alissah is an activist, recording artist and aspiring fashion designer based out of Atlanta, GA. She is originally from Durango, Mexico, and grew up in Gainesville, GA. Throughout high school, she was involved in band as well as theater. She began doing shows when she relocated to Panama City, FL in 2004. Since then she's been on the rise to stardom, being featured on MTV's hit show Teen Wolf, VH1's Love & Hip Hop Atlanta and Tyler Perry's hit movie Good Deeds. Alissah also landed a role in the film If I Should Die Before I Wake, directed by Eric Ayala, which has won many awards on the independent film circuit.
Alissah was briefly part of the all-trans girl group The Secret Girls in the fall of 2015. The group disbanded shortly after. In the summer of 2016 Alissah decided to focus on a solo career. She has since joined BSE and began working with producer Ryan Snow on her debut music project.
Alissah's activist work began when she was denied entry into a club for being transgender. She has since worked with her best friend, singer/actress Kat Graham, along with GLAAD to bring awareness to this issue, attending many GLAAD functions as well as presenting Graham with the Lambda Legal Celebrity in the Spotlight Award. Alissah continues to do charity work and raise money for various organizations including Lost & Found Youth. In 2016, Alissah was presented with the GA Voice Best Transgender Activist award.
