Many actors in Tinseltown begin their careers at an early age with a clear idea that acting is what they are meant to do. For Thorne, the decision to dive into the performing arts world and pursue acting seriously came about spontaneously. As she was entering her teenage years, she decided to attend Manhattan's Professional Performing Arts School (PPAS), though the move to do so wasn't in the cards for her initially. "I just felt like I should apply for a performing arts high school. To this day, I don't know where that thought, impulse, or desire came from . . . A lot of people tried to talk me out of that decision but I was just so set on it," Thorne explained to Trinidad and Tobago Newsday in 2020.
