Early life and education

She began playing piano at an early age and transitioned to oboe when joining the junior high school band; she was the last person to be able to select an instrument, and the only one that was available was the oboe. She enrolled in high school at the North Carolina School of Music, received bachelor's and master's degrees from the Manhattan School of Music, as well as a master's degree in communication from Stanford University, where she obtained a full tuition scholarship. She also attended Columbia University.
Personal life
Bill Nye, a science educator, was married by Tindall on February 3, 2006. The ceremony was hosted by Rick Warren of The Entertainment Gathering at the Skirball Cultural Center in Los Angeles. The music was provided by Yo-Yo Ma. The wedding was nullified seven weeks later, for reasons that neither Tindall nor Nye had ever revealed. Nye left the marriage and had the marriage annulled at that time. Tindall broke into Nye's house in 2007 and loot some of his possessions, including his laptop, which she used to send defamatory emails impersonating him, and her garden was strewn. Nye obtained a restraining order against her in reaction. Tindall admitted to killing his plants but denied it was a threat to him. Tindall was ordered to pay $57,000 of Nye's court costs after breaking the order in 2009.
Nye sued Tindall for unpaid attorney's fees in 2012 after she failed to pay the $57,000.
