Mckenzie began performing at the age of 12, accompanying her brother violist through the Suzuki repertoire and playing with the Colorado Springs Youth Symphony. She received a music scholarship to continue her studies at Southeastern University, where she earned a double major in English and music. She worked extensively as a piano accompanist, playing with the band, orchestra, and ensembles as well as providing accompaniment for pieces ranging from Beethoven's "Spring Sonata" to cello-and-piano sonatas by Prokofiev and Shostakovich.
Upon graduating summa cum laude with honors, having her honors thesis "'Hamlet' as Music: A Study in the Semantics of Symphonic Poetry" published by her alma mater, she was admitted to the University of Rochester to pursue a PhD in English, which she declined to pursue her passion as a piano teacher, accompanist, and performer.
