==Early life==
She started making content on social media in 2014, when she was in elementary school.https://ihsvoice.com/studentlife/student-spotlight/2019/10/13/passion-to-parodies-francesca-baradi In her freshman year of high school, she began creating content based around humor, games, and music. She has attended and graduated from Irvington High School in Fremont, California.
==ReptileLegitGaming==
For a large part of her YouTube career, ReptileLegit was known as ReptileLegitGaming. From the start of her channel until January 14, 2018, she uploaded almost only gaming content.
==Minecraft Parodies==
On February 17, 2018, a month after her last gaming video, she uploaded "Drake - Gods Plan (MINECRAFT PARODY)" to her channel. The video was a hit and as of December 31, 2018, the video has over 2M views. From that point on, she uploaded more parodies which received millions of views. Her most viewed Minecraft parody is her Despacito parody, with over 8M views and over 240K likes. The video was shouted out and referenced by several big-name YouTubers like PewDiePie. Since "Despacito 3", she has collaborated with the likes of Grandayy, Galaxy Goats, and Ardelta. She was also noticed by another meme channel named Dolan Dark. She has managed to dodge many copyright claims, such as with Despacito 3 which almost got copyrighted. She posted parodies of Bitch Lasagna, called "Witch Savannah", and Congratulations (also by PewDiePie). Both PewDiePie parodies were massive hits, hitting several millions of views.
==Return==
On May 13, 2022, she came back to YouTube by uploading a video related to disturbing Discord servers. She stated in that same video that she took a break from YouTube so that she could recover her mental health, and that she will no longer upload Minecraft parodies, given that she has grown out of them. However, she mentioned that she will be making real music, some of which can already be found on Spotify, and she will go on tour in summer 2022.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BjJpqu6GzH8

ReptileLegit has appeared on other meme YouTube channels recently, most notably on Grandayy's second channel grande1899.

The day after on December 23, 2018, ReptileLegit and Grandayy/grande1899 along with schmoyoho came together to make "GAMER TIME", a parody of the popular "Muffin Song" which was originally created by TomSka.
