Personal life
Holland was born in Dallas, Texas. Holland took her love of performing further by enrolling in theater camps, as well as, acting classes to further her passion. However, it was Holland's second love, science that brought her out to Los Angeles and jump-started her career.[6]
Holland has remained dedicated to her education as a full-time student, but due to her busy work schedule, she was forced to make the hard decision of switching majors, leaving her love for science behind and majoring in women studies; a field Holland found surprisingly fascinating and recently received her degree in from UCLA.
