Early life Elen Levon was born on 13 July 1994 in Ukraine and moved to Sydney with her family shortly after she was born. She started ballet classes and learning other genres of dance aged three. Her mother was in the fashion industry, so Levon modeled and walked the catwalk at her mother's and friends' fashion shows. At the age of six, Levon found out she could sing and decided it was something she wanted to do for the rest of her life. She joined a performing arts school where she could further her skills, which led to her training in all styles of dance including ballet, dance, musical theatre, singing and acting.
