Hi! I used to be addicted to video games, but I'm too tired to play now. I live in Nova Scotia, Canada and work as a developer. I enjoy photography, cooking and eating spicy things, and watching dumb movies every Thursday night with frands. I live with my husband, son, and our cat, Dumbledore. I think that pretty much sums me up. I don't have much experience with streaming, but I've been playing games for as long as I can remember. Some of my favourite games growing up were Mario Kart, Mario Paint, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, Conker's Bad Fur Day, Final Fantasy VII, and Pokémon Red/Blue/Yellow before I moved on from consoles. Counter-Strike 1.6 was a huge part of my life, and inspired me to build my first PC.

**Why Garl?** My gaming alias has been Garl since I was 15. At the time, I had a crush on a boy who would say, "hey garrrl" when he saw me. I've been using it far too long to change it now. **What games do you play?** I primarily played Overwatch until Blizzard deleted it, now I am lost. Other games with significant hours played are Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds, Apex Legends, Fortnite, Minecraft, 7 Days to Die, Dying Light, Subnautica, Temtem, Diablo III, and Animal Crossing. Overall, I prefer competitive, multiplayer games. I figure I'm introverted enough as is, that my gaming time should be spent with other people. **How often do you stream?** Almost never. **Why are you the way that you are?** I'm neurodivergent and have social anxiety disorder, which at times can be debilitating. I do my best to interact with chat, but I'm shy and awkward AF, and apparently can't pronounce anyone's username correctly. Why do I even try?
