Saskhia Menendez is a multifaceted individual with a rich and diverse background that has shaped her journey in the music industry. Born to two deaf parents and hailing from a mixed heritage and disadvantaged background, Saskhia's musical talent was recognized early on by her school. She was sent to voice trials at Christ Church Cathedral School, where she won a bursary, marking the beginning of her remarkable musical career.

Saskhia's dedication to her craft led to three weekly performances, daily practice, and a private education centered around music and performance. This foundation propelled her to tour the world, perform for the queen, make television appearances, and sell albums globally. Alongside these achievements, she collaborated with top choirs worldwide, showcasing her versatility as a musician, vocalist, and composer. Saskhia's musical abilities extend to playing the piano and flute.

Her academic achievements in music include a GCSE in music (B), a BA in Events Music and Media Management (2:1), and an MA in International Music Marketing with Distinction. Saskhia has managed three unsigned acts – Stevie Jay, Jada Pearl & Teressa Edwards – contributing to their development and securing opportunities with labels and publishers. Her involvement includes overseeing the production of albums, singles, and music videos, as well as securing interviews, collaborations, and event placements.

In addition to her professional endeavours, Saskhia is a proud parent of two children and has been a trailblazer in the realm of gender identity. Having transitioned from Male to Female 12 years ago, she underwent the full surgical process and hormone treatment. Saskhia is a passionate social activist for trans rights and equality issues, serving as an equality and diversity ambassador for underrepresented and disadvantaged communities across the UK. Her motivations include diversifying the music industry landscape, improving representation, access, and educating others about the barriers faced by certain groups. Saskhia's journey is a testament to resilience, talent, and an unwavering commitment to making a positive impact in the world of music and beyond.
