After high school Fiskum moved to Lakeland, Florida, where she studied music at Southeastern University.[3]
Fiskum was a contestant of The Voice, Season 18.[2] Her first performance resulted in high praise from all the judges.[4] Three of the four judges turned their chair after she sang “Light on” by Maggie Rogers.[4] Fiskum ultimately chose John Legend's team.[4] She was eliminated after reaching the Top 9.[1][5] Fiskum performed her final performance virtually due to the COVID-19 pandemic in her renovated RV.[6][5]
