Grey entered the adult film industry in August 2013 and joined the agency Motley Models in December of that year. She was a fan of pornography before joining the industry herself and her favorite performers to watch were Sasha Grey and James Deen. Her agents came up with the last name "Grey" for her stage name because they were aware of her fascination with Sasha Grey. "Keisha" has been her nickname since high school.
Grey was placed on CNBC's list of "The Dirty Dozen: Porn's biggest stars" in 2016.
