Early life

Roy was born in Banff, Alberta, Canada to Teresa and Kurtis Roy. She was crowned Miss Teen Red Deer and Miss Teen Calgary in 2005.[2]

Roy has worked with charities since 2005 including the Leo Club, Students Against Drunk Driving, the Chive, and Operation Supply Drop.[2][3]

Career

Roy's screen debut was in 2010 with the role of Jane in 30 Days of Night: Dark Days.[4] Roy learned the art of bartending at Uva Wine Bar in Vancouver, Canada. She came up with the idea of “The Nerdy Bartender” after having a particularly bad drink at a dive-bar she used to work at called The Foggy Dew. She almost immediately began developing her show on YouTube and continued to do so for over a year. As she moved away from YouTube and towards Twitch, she recrafted the show into a live talk-show style format where she would interview guests while teaching them how to make various cocktails.[1]

In 2013, she designed her costume for her second fan film Starcraft: Hunt for Kerrigan, which was nominated for Best Action Short at the Geeksboro Film Fest in 2015.[5]

Between 2014 and 2015, Roy worked with YouTubers IFHT both in acting and producing capacities. The videos include How to be a DJ, How to be a Filmmaker and Bad Ways to Get Rid of Your Girlfriend. She also worked with YouTubers Film Riot shooting behind the scenes for a series of DJI commercials.[6]

Later in 2015, Roy played Harley Quinn in the Leo Award nominated fan film Nightwing: The Darkest Knight directed by Matthew Campbell.[7] Her work with the character was praised.[8][9]

At the end of 2018, Roy successfully sold The Nerdy Bartender to The Brewdog Network for a 7 episode season. [10] Almost immediately after its release in 2019, the show was picked up for a second season on the network DrinkTV which released in June 2020.[11][1]
