Early life, family, and education[edit]
Teyei was born and raised in Jos, Nigeria, to a family of 4[1]. She is currently an English major student at the prestigious University of Jos.

She enrolled more students into the academy to study different courses which grew massively.
Teyei’s desire to educate the public, especially her immediate community, about fashion intensified in early 2019. This gave birth to an online campaign tagged #DoYouKnow. The aim was to educate those on social media on some tips and information in the fashion industry. This campaign ran for about a year.[4]
In September 14, 2019, she organized her first fashion meetup, with the theme “Role of Fashion in Plateau State: What Needs to Change” and the hashtag #JosFashionMeetUp out of the desire to have an intense discussion around the fashion industry in Plateau State. The event had in attendance other fashion designers, photographers, on-air personalities, bloggers, models, and possible investors, among others.[5]
In December 11, 2021, Teyei was selected to be part of the Teyei’s Couture’s first webinar series Speakers[6], where she emphasized that “every body shape on earth is beautiful” and the need to “understand your body type...dress according to your body shape.”
