## Career

Fu began streaming in February 2015 after being introduced to the activity by her roommates. Before branching out towards a wider variety of games, she primarily streamed League of Legends. She briefly was a streamer for professional League of Legends teams Immortals and the now-defunct Phoenix1.

In December 2018, Fu, along with fellow Twitch streamer BoxBox, hosted a 4-day streaming boot camp called Streamer Camp, an event aimed at improving the skills of up-and-coming Twitch streamers and content creators. A second season of the event was held in June 2019 with the hosts being Fu, BoxBox, SlightlyMusical and Valkyrae. The 2020 Season of Streamer Camp was cancelled due to the COVID-19 Pandemic and it is still unknown if there will be a Streamer Camp in 2021.

In March 2019, Fu partnered with the North America Scholastic Esports Federation (NASEF) and the Anaheim Ducks hockey team in holding an NHL 19 tournament. The tournament gave away over $25,000 in scholarships and grants to high school students. Fu has also spoken to NASEF voicing her support for women in gaming.

Fu was one of many streamers affected by the large wave of DMCA takedown notices issued against Twitch in June of 2020. After receiving two strikes, Fu criticized the platform's response to the situation saying, "On top of it being near impossible for me to delete >100,000 clips, the creator dashboard isn't loading any of my old clips. How am I supposed to protect myself here? This is an issue way bigger than me. Content creators aren't being informed by Twitch on the proper steps to protect themselves from this happening, and there has to be a better way to handle this than suddenly striking our accounts and banning us out of nowhere"

In June 2020, Fu participated in a Chess.com tournament for Twitch streamers titled PogChamps. She made it to the quarterfinals of the consolation bracket, where she lost to fellow streamer xQc. Fu would later be one of over 40 streamers featured on the cover of the August 2020 edition of Chess Life.
