Tiara is a musical prodigy who's a member of MENSA, the high IQ society. She graduated high school at 13 and has been taking community college classes for the past year. She will enter university as a junior transfer student this fall and plans to pursue vocal performance. "It's going to be really hard to choose," Abraham explained. "But it's also important that we choose the right vocal instructor that's right for me. That's the main thing."
