Kendra recalls, "There was no television or computer access, so my brother, little sister and I had to get imaginative - we spent our days playing in the woods, tracking animal footprints, building fairy forts, playing with worm snakes, you know the usual kid stuff." Her parents said, "Kendra was always putting on home plays and telling stories, climbing trees to get away from the bad guys, speaking in new accents and made up languages - she kept us entertained so there was really no need for television or cable".After graduating high school she went to college for Business, but felt she was missing something. One Summer home from university, she discovered what it was - she found an acting studio with the encouragement of her mother. She spent the summer immersed in the craft, and began working on independent films while training and finishing her Business degree.
