Amy spent much of her childhood with her siblings (five sisters and five brothers). She graduated in the year 2013 after being homeschooled by her parents.

Amy and her sisters showed keen interest in music from early childhood. Amy grew up listening to her favorite musicians and would often play the guitar and sing along with her sisters.

Amy Cimorelli had stopped growing when she was just five years old. The next four years were really frustrating for Amy and her family as they simply could not find out the exact cause that was hampering Amy’s growth. When she was nine years old, Amy was diagnosed with Turner syndrome, which affects one of the X chromosomes of a female child.

Though Amy was diagnosed with a mild form of the syndrome, she was forced to take growth hormones each and every day to give herself a chance to grow. After enduring a lot of physical and emotional struggle, Amy gradually realized that Turner syndrome is just a part of her life and that she needs to accept the fact to fight it. With a lot of support and help from her mother and rest of her family members, Amy managed to fight against Turner syndrome. As a result, Amy now stands tall at 4 feet 10 inches.
