Lee studied at Pulaski Academy. She described her school years as a "weird fit for [her]" and was "a loner for while". She identified herself as an "art nerd" or "choir nerd", and would listen to alternative and heavy metal music. Lee said that writing became an "outlet for all the bad stuff [she] was feeling". She joined the school's mixed choir and sang as an alto. She became president of the choir council in her senior year.
