The organizer approved of her casting, and so she was recruited as the regular caster of the league.

ZombieGrub began casting in 2011 after spontaneously applying to cast a small tournament that she was a part of. She initially placed in Gold League.Īround December 2012, ZombieGrub took an active interest in becoming competitive and joined Starcraft2Strategy. Upon the release of StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty, ZombieGrub originally played Zerg, but switched mid 2012 to Terran because she felt Terran had more variety. In October 2017, ZombieGrub announced that she was stepping down from BaseTradeTV as a permanent caster to a more freelance role, citing a desire to expand her own brand in a TL blog. ZombieGrub shifted the focus onto StarCraft as an esport, with classes on its history, the growth of esports, and how future game developers can think of incorporating esports into their design. The class had originally been taught by Axslav, with its syllabus focusing on learning StarCraft 2 as a game and the concepts of improving oneself and war strategies.

In 2015, she taught 'Intro to Starcraft' at the NYU Game Center from September to December.

She graduated from The Art Institutes with a BFA in Media Arts & Animation and a focus on 3D Environment & Prop Modeling in 2013. However, despite being familiar with Brood War, she would only learn of the world of competitive gaming around late 2010, and would only seriously consider playing StarCraft II in mid-2011. ZombieGrub's StarCraft experience started with playing StarCraft 64 with her two older brothers, before eventually getting the PC version sometime in 2007.
