Donald Trump’s youngest daughter is not [as famous as Ivanka](http://time.com/4405825/the-apprentices/), but she’s got a following of her own.

A recent graduate of the University of Pennsylvania, her father’s alma mater, 22-year-old Tiffany Trump has an active Instagram account with more than 160,000 followers.

She occasionally posts moments from her father’s campaign, including his announcement last summer, but most of her images are personal, leading her to be named one of the [“Rich Kids of Instagram”](http://www.businessinsider.com/tiffany-trump-and-the-rich-kids-of-instagram-speak-up-2015-8) last year.

Tiffany Trump has not been as active on the campaign trail as her siblings, in part because she was still in school, so her speech at the Republican National Convention Tuesday will be her political debut.

She was largely raised in California by her mother Marla Maples, Donald’s second wife, and only saw her father [a few times a year.](http://time.com/4317678/donald-trump-family-ivanka-melania/) “Her daddy is a good provider with education and such, but as far as time, it was just me,” Maples told [_People_ magazine.](http://www.people.com/article/marla-maples-raised-tiffany-single-mother-after-donald-trump-divorce)
