Early Personal Life
Having earned fame as a young teenage dancer, it’s safe to say that Taylor’s early life is far from complete, but despite earning her place in gossip publications, very little is actually known about the mysterious dancer.
Born on 26 March 2004, in Palos Verdes, California to an Asian family, Taylor has kept most of the details about her life private. As such, very little can be found about her, but it’s known that Paige is not the only child. She has an older brother, Andrew Shin, who has appeared in some of her content, and a younger sister though nothing, including her name, is known about the youngest Shin sibling.
Paige has also shared content on TikTok and other social media platforms that featured her parents, though their identities haven’t been disclosed anywhere. As it appears, the remaining Shin family seems intent on keeping their privacy.
People also remain uncertain about her true ethnicity, but she is clearly of Asian descent, of which in particular is anyone’s guess. However, considering that she belongs to the Shin family, Paige is most likely of either Japanese or Chinese bloodline.
While she was born in Palos Verde, the young dancer hasn’t spent her whole life in this California town, as her family later moved to Los Angeles, California, where she started her early career.
Education
Paige matriculated in 2022, though the details of her educational career remain a mystery; it’s unknown where she attended elementary school, or which high school she matriculated from.
With her career in social media entertainment already seemingly set in stone, it doesn’t appear as if Paige has any intention of attending college, though so far she hasn’t shared her plans for the future.

Career
Taylor began her career as a dancer, and starred in the reality television show “Dance Moms”, part of the dance group known as Playground Dance Studio, which competed against the stars of the show.
However, despite earning renown in “Dance Moms” after she won one of the competitions, Paige doesn’t credit her success to featuring on reality television. In fact, when questioned about it, Paige rather laughed it off, and said that she was hardly part of the show
Regardless, Paige remains grateful for the opportunity and admits that it paved the way for her future success. As of 2016, Taylor began uploading dancing videos on TikTok, formerly known as Musical.ly , and started attracting an impressive followership.
This marked the beginning of her social media entertainment career, and she now boasts more than a million followers on Instagram, as well as more than five million subscribers on TikTok. Following her initial rise in popularity, the TikTok sensation joined the creator Hype House, with whom she collaborated in several videos.
In October 2022, Paige departed from Hype House to concentrate on her solo career, and has since earned numerous endorsement deals and sponsorships, which include modelling for Mermade Hair and several luxury brands.
