	Description:		Pokimane attributes her epic rise to the #1 female gamer on Twitch to two things - her genuine passion and love for gaming, and her incredible community of fans. Poki's followers adore her, and when she arrived at the studio, it was instantly clear why. Not only is Pokimane a skilled and talented gamer, she is bright, kind, and well-spoken. After meeting her, I would wait in line for 3 hours at Twitchcon for a glimpse of Poki too. With over 79 MILLION total views on the streaming platform, a Shorty Award under her belt, and her own documentary on Amazon, Imane is changing the game. Poki shares how she's overcome stereotypes, navigated the industry, and leaned on her Twitch community during hard times. Of course we also talked #trolls.
