Fun Facts:
1. Eva admits that before she became a streamer herself, she didn't really watch other streamers.
"It was some of my friends who did social media and streaming who talked to me about how much they loved it. I started watching them and it looked really fun! So I gathered my savings and bought my first PC and all the
other supplies and started from there. The first time I did it, I fell in love. It's so much fun to show your personality online and engage with people in real-time. I love it."-Eva Violet

2. Waterparks and Against the Current are a couple of her favorite alternative bands.
"For my favorite musician of all time—this is so basic, but I can't not say it—Taylor Swift! I love Taylor Swift more than anything in the world. She's amazing. I'm going to see her in concert next year and I am so excited! It's a dream come true!"
-Eva Violet
3. The last celebrity he got starstruck over was Craig Robinson.
"I went to a comedy show in L.A. recently, and at the end, Craig Robinson came in to do a comedy set and I sat there like 'OMG' and freaking out because he was so close to me and I love The Office. That was so surreal. He's in so many shows I love and I was so starstruck."
-Eva Violet
4. Her biggest guy celebrity crush is Andew Garfield.
"I love that man. When the new Spider-Man movie came out, my whole FYP was of Andrew Garfield edits and I was in love. He's the whole package. In terms of girls, it's got to be Maggie Lindemann. She is so beautiful and so cool and she makes really cool music. I love her!"

"It's so catchy!"

6. Two of Eva's favorite fictional world are tied for the one she'd prefer to live in.
"I'm a bit conflicted about this one. I have two very different worlds for very different reasons. The first one is That's Time I Got Reincarnated As a Slime. It's such a fun anime and everyone gets on really well with each other and it seems really cute to live there. On the flip side, Gossip Girl! I want to live on the Upper East Side with rich parents and go to lots of fancy galas and wear pretty dresses! Whenever I watch something new, I want to live that life. When I watched The Office for the first time, I started applying for jobs as a receptionist because I wanted to live in that world! I wanted to be a vampire when I first watched Vampire Diaries. I really just want to embody the
characters."-Eva Violet
7. Genshin Impact is her all-time favorite video game.
"That is the most beautiful, gorgeous game that I have ever played. It took over my life when I first started playing it! I can't stop playing it!"
-Eva Violet
8. She says that one of her biggest character quirks is that she occasionally has tics.
"It's not like Tourette's. It's more of an autism thing. I'll make little noises sometimes. They are so annoying but so on-brand for me, like e-girl tics and noises. It tends to happen when I'm cold, uncomfortable, or anxious!"

9. She hasn't streamed in a year, but she does have some tips for up-and-coming streamers out there.
"Definitely consistency. Stream the same day and time each week. People will begin to notice when you are streaming and be there. In terms of technical stuff, lighting is so important! You can have a basic webcam, but if you have good lighting, then it really helps. Lastly, gaining a following on Twitch is really difficult, so post on your other social accounts, too, because then people will start to come over from there and you can get more people in your streams."
-Eva Violet
10. She has quite a few collections.
"I collect dinosaur toys, plushies, manga, anime figures and crystals. I am a total collector! I find one thing and it's all I think about for months!"
-Eva Violet
11. One thing that's core to who Eva is as a human is that she's a very trusting person.
"That is one thing I have always tried to keep within me. Which is something that can be good or bad! I think it's good because past negative experiences don't matter now. But it's also bad because I am very easily manipulated and vulnerable. It has its pros and cons!"
