Background and Early Life
Kayda was born on January 29, 2004, and hails from Manchester, New Hampshire. She is of mixed heritage, born to a Haitian father and a mother of German and Irish descent. Growing up, she attended Manchester Central High School, where she was a highly active varsity athlete playing both volleyball and basketball as a shooting guard.
Career
Standing at 5'9", Kayda initially moved to New York City to pursue a professional career in modeling and was signed with Evolve Model Management in 2022. However, she ultimately chose to leave the fast-paced, cutthroat modeling industry behind and returned home, working as a server before transitioning to reality TV.

Love Island USA
Kayda made show history on Love Island USA Season 8 by entering the villa on Day 2 as the season's very first female "bombshell". During the show, she coupled up with fellow contestant Zach Georgiou. The pair remained together through the standard multi-week villa experience, surviving the "Casa Amor" separation twist and ultimately finishing the competition in fourth place during the season finale.
