T. A Suyt was born the youngest of nine children to her parents in the city of Minneapolis, Minnesota. From a very young age, she discovered she was a story teller. She would talk to her family about her days at school with so much detail and expression that it immediately made anyone who listened to her feel like they were there themselves. She remembered enjoying turning her day into stories, and began creating characters of her own as early as the age of 8.
Fast forwarding fourteen years, T. A. Suyt graduated from Augsburg University in 2011 with a bachelors in both Psychology and Religion. She then began her stint working in middle & high school classroom settings. It was in those settings that she first began to see a need for resume assistance amongst first time job seekers. T. A. Suyt began providing resume assistance for youth and first time job seeks on her spare time in 2016. She also served in programs that provided high school students with summer interview coaching and mentorship opportunities.
Throughout her selfless work amongst youth and first time job seekers, T. A. Suyt still had a passion for story telling and content creation. In 2019, she began to shift her focus from education onto her own passion projects. That same year, she self- published her first book, "We Learn With Experience: A Book of Poetry, Letters, and Quotes." T. A. Suyt specializes in "Gray Writing," a term she coined herself about being human. In her opinion, humans aren't good nor evil. Protagonists and not antagonists. Black nor white. But gray! Meaning at times we teeter on both ends of the spectrum, which is a reoccurring theme in her short stories and books.
Also that same year, T. A. Suyt launched T. A. Suyt Brand Designs. This "Fun, Trendy, and Expressive" company launched to display her desires for business, fashion, and designs. All artwork is done exclusively by T. A. Suyt herself, including her specialties the "ZODIAC," "Decades," and "Game On!" collections. Her urban yet classic signature style can now be purchased online through numerous popular e-commerce sites. Even with that creative outlet, she didn't stop there! In December of 2022, T. A. Suyt launched her very own podcast, "Stories & Advice With T. A. Suyt!" This podcast showcased her hosting skills, while giving audiences her own unique look on various topics.
Though categorized as a "self- help" podcast, T. A. Suyt also uses it to display more of her creative side. There are videos of her stories being read aloud with character voices done by T. A. Suyt herself. There are videos of her discussing various quotes and letters from her books. But then there's also random never before written stories being told, and comical reviews that are simply meant for pure entertainment and fun. Reminiscent of her days working with youth, she reminds her audience to never give up. To always push forward and to find the sense of humor in things.
T. A. Suyt's inherent need to serve her community with populations often forgotten, while also following her dreams & ambitions, is what often keeps her driven and focused. To think of so much she has accomplished already in just a short span of time, and to think that she's only getting started. There are still so many other endeavors, books, merchandise, designs, and topics that T. A. Suyt would love to take on. And in due time, she will be sure to do just that!
