Gaming Origins
MaddyNF grew up playing video games with her siblings, starting with games such as Donkey Kong Racing and various Mario titles on the Nintendo 64. As they got older, their parents bought them other systems to play on as well, including the PlayStation 2 and Wii. When she was older, she started buying herself her own consoles and games so that she wouldn’t have to share them. During high school, she primarily enjoyed playing fps games such as Call of Duty: Black Ops II and III, and Infinite Warfare.
After high school, she completed her associate degree in Math and Science. While she was there, one of her close relatives passed away and she decided to take a semester off in order to go home to be with her family, while completing what she had to online.
She started playing Fortnite on October 6, 2017 during Season 1. She was soon addicted and began grinding it every day and even competing in online tournaments.
She moved to Texas in February 2020 when she felt that she was earning enough money to fully support herself.
Professional Gaming
During her semester at home, MaddyNF had a lot of free time and few friends who were around to hang out with during the day, so she spent a lot of her free time gaming. She noticed that some of her Call of Duty friends would stream their gameplays directly to Mixer from their Xboxes. She thought that it looked like fun, so she decided to give it a shot as well.
So, she began streaming straight onto Mixer from her Xbox as well for fun in October 2017. She didn’t have a face-cam and just used her basic gaming equipment. She really enjoyed it and decided to buy an Elgato Capture Card in order to be able to switch over to YouTube instead and began streaming regularly in October 2017, shortly after getting into Fortnite. She then used her laptop’s built-in mic and webcam to film her profile while she was recording her live gameplay. This change worked out for her and she finally started to see growth in her subscriber base. When the time came to return to college, she decided to postpone it in order to pursue full time streaming instead.
This was a risk as she was on a scholarship program for Chemistry at the Ohio State University at the time. MaddyNF started out as a YouTube content creator and streamer in December 2017. In October 2019, she announced that she would be switching from YouTube Gaming to Twitch. She then joined Complexity Gaming on February 21, 2020 and received Twitch partnership the following month.
Relationships
She has a boyfriend.

Watching other people’s gameplay and watching your own gameplay and going back and reflecting and seeing how you can improve and how you died and what you could do differently… I feel that all of that has really helped me to improve as a player.
