About spantifical
When I pressed the “Start Streaming” button in February 2021, little did I anticipate transitioning into a full-time content creator. Facing a major life change, including a cross-country move for a fresh start, my initial intention was just to have some fun and earn a bit to help me get my footing.
However, the overwhelming response led me to reevaluate my plans after relocating. Through thoughtful planning, a little luck, and the incredible support of the spanapples community, I saw the potential to make it all work.
Here I am, three years later, still growing, still learning, and still excited to go live and connect with all of you!
With your support, I’ve achieved both Twitch and YouTube partnerships. This website marks the next phase of growth for the spantifical brand.
Whether you are new here or have been with me from the start, I’m excited to have you join me on this journey!
The spanapples?
I am exceptionally fortunate to have children who are artists. My youngest drew my initial avatar and my oldest took care of my first emotes!
One emote that every streamer needs is some sort of “love” emote. These are the initial sketches my daughter sent me. I questioned the heart being cut off at the bottom, and after I saw her response, how could I complain?!?
My viewers would sometimes mistake the heart in the image for an apple, and the “spanapple” was born. Now all of our in-game communities are called the spanapples and many of my viewers call themselves my spanapples.
