Bruckner speaks some Russian and is fluent in Hungarian, having spoken that language since birth.[2] She had studied dance, ballet, and tap since the age of five, intending a career as a dancer. At the age of eight, Bruckner appeared in a beauty pageant while working as a child model at the suggestion of her mother.[2] Bruckner was raised in the Los Feliz section of Los Angeles until age five, then in Portland, Oregon until age ten,[3] when her family moved to Burbank for her to pursue an acting career in Los Angeles.[3]
