She works across singing, acting, modeling and dancing and has already moved from early beginnings in Johannesburg to international stages in New York and Los Angeles.

Her growing body of work reflects consistent effort, clear ambition and a path shaped by discipline and curiosity.

With each new project, she strengthens her influence in a competitive industry and develops a voice that is becoming recognisable in its own right.

Her interest in performance first became clear during her early childhood. Family members remember her singing while playing with her toys, often turning simple moments into small performances.

She later described those early memories by saying, “Music felt natural to me before I even understood what performing was. It was the way I expressed myself”

What began as instinct soon became a structured artistic journey. In 2018 she enrolled in formal singing lessons that helped refine her voice and guide the development of her unique sound.

These sessions shaped the way she approached technique, storytelling and vocal expression.

As she grew older, Niemand began taking part in competitions, community showcases and formal performance events that introduced her to wider audiences.

Each stage appearance helped build her confidence. She has spoken often about the impact of those early performances, saying, “Every stage I stepped onto taught me something new. Even when I was nervous, I felt that music was exactly where I belonged.”
