Her sixth grade English teacher suggested to her parents that May should express her creativity in some way.[2] After auditioning for three years without landing a role, May and her parents decided to have her schooling online starting in tenth grade so that she could concentrate on acting.[2] Six months later, she landed the role of Katie in Alexa & Katie with no acting experience and limited training.[2] She later joined the cast of Young Sheldon[3] as the love interest of Sheldon's brother Georgie.[4] She stars as the party host in the independent film Let's Scare Julie To Death, a 90-minute continuously-shot film about scaring the reclusive girl next door at a Halloween party that was filmed in 2018.[5]
