Career

He started creating gaming videos and skits for YouTube during his high school years in 2009. He joined Ustream in 2011 and moved to Justin.tv, then started streaming on Twitch. He graduated from the Friends School of Baltimore in 2011.[1] After failing to get into The University of North Carolina, he enrolled in The University of North Carolina- Wilmington. After realizing that college was preventing him from making content, he decided to drop out and move to Los Angeles with other YouTube content creators (GoldGlove, TmarTn, Syndicate, MuzzaFuzza) known collectively as the Gamershore. He did take classes at a community college in Los Angeles, but eventually did YouTube and Twitch streaming full time.[2]

He is the co-founder of The Race, which was a regular fundraising livestream event, helping the charity program of the Call of Duty Endowment foundation.[3]

He and his fellow streamer Tom Cassell are the creators of the Minecraft online gaming series titled Mianite, started on May 2014.[4] The two friends partnered up with Jordan Maron and Sonja Reid as the four main characters of the show. The series has been renewed for a second season in 2015.

Occasionally he participates in E-sports tournaments for Counter-Strike: Global Offensive and Player Unknown's Battlegrounds. His top e-sports achievement was winning the Jack Ryan CS:GO Invitational Tournament in 2018.[5]

On November 29, 2019, Boner, along with Daniel Goudie of Disciple Records, launched a new record label called "Night Mode". The label's first single is "Everything You Need" by Unlike Pluto.[6]

In 2018 he was listed on the Forbes's "30 Under 30" list in the gaming category.[7]
