missharvey

She has a dog named Loky.

missharvey grew up in a competitive family, as her dad was a professional hockey player when she was a baby. This competitiveness also translated into video games and sports in her own life. Outside of that, she also enjoyed creating art.

Her first PPC game was Minesweeper. From there, she moved on to 3D Pinball as well as the various Disney games like Aladdin and The Lion King. She first started playing Counter-Strike in 2003.

After high school, she acquired a Bachelor’s degree in Archeology from Université Laval, followed by a Master’s in Video Game Design from the Université de Montréal. She chose to switch her main focus of her studies as she wanted to combine her true passion with her career, especially as she only found out about the Master’s program midway through her Architecture degree.

She then went on to work for UbiSoft as a video game designer upon completing her studies in 2011 and even fully designed Far Cry Primal which released in February 2016. She took a sabbatical from her UbiSoft job in December 2015 and then returned for a few months before permanently leaving the company to focus on her pro-gaming career in July 2017.

missharvey first started competing in Counter-Strike (CS) with CS 1.6 in 2003. She remained with them until the team was signed on with CLG Red as their first all-female Counter-Strike: Global Offensive team. She was still working for UbiSoft at the time.

She then made her debut as a caster at the DreamHack Austin open in May 2016, although she only got back into it two years later. After that, she gradually received more casting opportunities and still continues to cast live and online events.  She left CLG in June 2017.

She then returned to CLG in November 2017 in a different capacity by taking on a position that focused on promoting inclusivity of female gamers in the gaming community under their Franchise Development and Outreach department.

She first started uploading gaming content to her YouTube channel in July 2010 and began streaming on Twitch in January 2013. She started streaming variety content rather than exclusively CS:GO content in May 2020.

According to her Twitch chat bot, missharvey has over 100 subscribers. This should put her base monthly income at around $250 USD, before receiving further income from tiered subscriptions, casting fees, Twitch cheer bit donations, sponsorships, tips, her team salary, and advertisements.

She doesn’t have a set schedule.

She is a big fan of the Backstreet Boys.
