Morier first considered pursuing a career as a songwriter for other artists in 2006 when talking with musician, songwriter Greg Kurstin, while working on Electrocute's song Bikini Bottom for the The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie (soundtrack) in Los Angeles. Greg had just began writing songs for pop artists and introduced her to his publisher.[2]
Morier soon after signed with music publishers Kobalt.[2] and landed her first cut when "Heaven on Earth", a song she'd co-written with Freescha, was recorded by Britney Spears for her album Blackout.
