Her parents brought music into CeCe's life at an early age. Her father was a second generantion DJ in the Los Angeles area, being one of the most talked about DJ's during the 1980's and 1990's. Her mother was a singer, who passed down the talent to CeCe.
From the time CeCe was born, her mother and father kept her in a musical envoirnment, always playing music, and dancing to different generes of music.

At the age 8, CeSquared has experesed her musical interest to the fullest by writing her own songs, and singing. Even though she loved to write and sing, she kept it to herself, for she was shy. It wasn't until her eighth grade year when she met a group of girls who shared the same musical interest as her. The later formed the group Y.D.C or Yung Dimez Clique consisting of four girls: Jazzi, Brenny, Ashley, and CeCe. All of the girls sing, but Jazzi also rapped, and CeCe and Brenny wrote most of the groups songs. During her time with Y.D.C., they performed at small parties and recorded songs, but egos, diva attitudes, and boys led to the end of the girl group. CeCe learned to better herself as a singer, songwriter, and was even introduced into rapping.
When entering high school, CeSquared expanded her musical interest into dance and acting. For all four years in high school, she was the captain of her schools dance/step team.
