Erika Ervin spent her childhood in her hometown, where she went to high school; by the age of 14, she was 5’11″/198cm tall. Upon matriculation, she enrolled at a college in the Bay Area of California to study Business Management and Theater Arts, initially wanting to be an actress, but quit that idea because of various roles of aliens or monsters that were offered to her. However, she decided to become a personal trainer due to her height, so she attended the National Academy of Sports Medicine, but afterwards also studied Law.
Thus, her professional career began when she started working as a personal trainer.

During the same year, she appeared in the short video “Google Maps Is Watching You”, which was followed by another short video entitled “Amazon Proof Your Home” (2012). In the following year, she was selected to appear as Shelley Godfrey in the TV series “Hemlock Grove”, and made a guest appearance in an episode of the TV series “Family Tools”. During the next year, she was cast to appear under her stage name Amazon Eve in the TV series “American Horror Story: Freak Show”, which lasted until 2014, increasing her net worth by a large margin.
To speak further about her career, Erika also appeared in the short video “Whitney’s Wedding” in 2017, and it is announced that she will appear in other titles including “Falling South”, “Dead Squad”, and “Chimera”, all of which will certainly increase her net worth and popularity.
