Prior to her transition, she began her acting career in 2012 on the Disney Channel sitcom Jessie and was later featured in a supporting part on ABC’s Back in the Game. Josie’s breakout performance on the comedy Champions starring Mindy Kaling in 2018 was a game shift, and she came out as a transgender woman. She also did not come out quietly; she wrote an article in which she revealed that she was a transsexual woman named Josie and authorized Time magazine to publish it.
