Amanda was born August 31, 2001 in Freehold Township, NJ, but moved to Miami, Florida at the age of 3 for better training opportunities. Her Her father, Konstantin, and mother, Olga, emigrated from Russia to the United States a few years before she was born to give their oldest daughter better opportunities to succeed.

She also became the first American finalist at the French Open Girls' Singles tournament when she was 14 years of age. She defeated her first top 150 ranked opponent before turning 15 years of age and captured her first WTA title in Copa Colsanitas on April 2019 at the age of 17.
