She has three cats.

sapphiRe discovered Counter-Strike 1.6 around 1999 and fell in love with it. She mained the franchise until the release of Valorant, and now splits her time between the two.

After high school, she went on to attend the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee - Lubar School of Business where she received a Masters of Business Administration in Marketing and eBusiness.

She started competing in LAN CS tournaments in 2000 and became an eSports Journalist for ESEANews in 2004, where she has been working ever since. Over the years, she competed in various other titles and on a number of different teams as well, including Halo, and also acted in a journalistic capacity for the title. She is now the Managing CS:GO Editor for the platform, as well as the Vice President of Talent at Team Dignitas.

She only streams a few times a year, as her man focus is casting and her fulltime job.

According to sapphiRe’s Twitch chat bot, she has around 35 subscribers. This puts her starting monthly income at around $88 USD, which is before the earnings she makes from her main job, tournaments earnings, tiered subscribers, sponsorships, advertisements, tips and Twitch cheer bit contributions. Her Twitch bio puts her tournament weddings at about $30,000 USD.

She doesn’t have a set schedule due to her professional commitments.
