A young playwright out of New York, she came to House of the Dragon after working as a writer on Netflix's The OA and HBO's Watchmen.[2]

She has received commissions from Actors Theatre of Louisville, South Coast Rep, and the Alley Theatre, and has a BA from Amherst College and an MFA from the New School for Drama.
She has openly remarked that she has dated both men and women.[3]
The daughter of a "roving journalist", Kiechel moved around frequently during her childhood, so she doesn't really consider herself to have one "hometown".[4] She spent eight years outside of the United States during her childhood before returning.[5]
