Check Out Imani Bell’s Story

Today we’d like to introduce you to Imani Bell. 

Hi Imani, so excited to have you on the platform. So, before we get into questions about your work-life, maybe you can bring our readers up to speed on your story and how you got to where you are today?
My life started as a gamer and now I am living my dream as a full-time gamer/content creator. Before this journey, I was an all-star cheerleader and dancer. That consumed my life for 14 years. During my free time, I played games and watched gaming videos on YouTube. A friend of mine suggested streaming on Facebook Gaming. I wasn’t sure what the journey would include but I was willing to play games on stream, why not? I streamed late nights after finishing work at 9 pm or so and would jump on stream to hang with my friends. Two years ago, I would have never imagined that I am where I am today, but here I am. I streamed 5 days of the week while working two other jobs. My goal was to build a community of people who enjoyed my content and I did. From zero to 7,810 followers here I am. FB Gaming decided to partner me to their platform and now I can live comfortably. I am now able to create content for other platforms and only have Facebook as my ONLY job. It is the best job ever. 

I’m sure you wouldn’t say it’s been obstacle-free, but so far would you say the journey has been a fairly smooth road?
Anything you decide to do in life usually never has a smooth road. There are always highs and lows in content creation. Sometimes you don’t have as many viewers as you usually do and other days you do have a solid group to chat with. There are days your chat isn’t active, days where you aren’t reaching sub-goals, or even sexism and racism. At one point, I lost all of my equipment because I was leaving a very unhealthy relationship. I was relocating home and had to figure out how to replace over $2,000 of equipment. With the help of my community, friends, and family, I was able to get the majority of it back within a month to continue my journey. 

Appreciate you sharing that. What else should we know about what you do?
I am a full-time streamer/content creator on Facebook Gaming. I am known as Facebook Gaming’s Pokémon Queen. I am currently most proud of my success on Facebook with my growth over the past two years and the consistency of my content. I feel as if I stand out on Facebook from others with my high-energy streams and content. I am also the only female to excel in Pokémon on the platform! I always include my community and show them the utmost love as much as I can. 

Can you share something surprising about yourself?
I am a professional dancer, beginner martial artist, and part-time cosplayer!
