LordKat was a contributor on TGWTG.com, primarily Blistered Thumbs as a game reviewer/player.

Origins

As a young lad in 1988, LordKaT started her online career at The Sierra Network - which was sold to AT&T and rebranded as The ImagiNation! Network - in the pre-MMO online RPG called The Shadow of Yserbius. This was during the days of pay-per-hour Internet access, and as such she raked up a bill of over $4,000 in one month (plus phone charges for the dial-up modem). Thus, she, at 8 years old, had already cost her family more money than any other child at his age.

Afterward, she wandered around online, jumping from BBS to BBS until eventually landing on Prodigy, then America Online (version 2.0), and finally acquiring a real Internet account in 1996. In 2000 she acquired her first cable modem, registered http://www.geekstreak.com/ and began her climb to Internet fame.

Internet Fame

Internet fame never came, and she was forced to find work as a short-order cook, an overnight Toy's R Us employee, a Blockbuster employee, and a Deli Clerk. Now she works at a streaming company making gobs of money. 

ThatGuyWithTheGlasses

Sometime in 2008 LordKaT found ThatGuyWithTheGlasses.com and thought it was good. She decided that she had to have a piece of the Internet fame pie, and created her own video series - Until We Win. She claims that she isn't all that original, but to many, she is a very patient and humble person who is capable of trumping even the hardest of games known to all man. 

Until We Win

Until We Win is a video series created in 2009 about a guy who plays "Nintendo Hard" video games until he wins, explaining the premise and mechanics of the game so that other players can win. Some legendary titles already beaten include: Silver Surfer, Battletoads, and The Adventures of Bayou Billy. He's also notable for beating games that previous reviewers and gamers weren't able to beat, including games played by Spoony and even the Nostalgia Critic in the case of Bebe's Kids.

Before Until We Win was picked up, it had won two Awesome Blogs of the Week on Transmission Awesome, and has been featured in the Best of Blogs section of TGWTG.com

On February 16th, 2011, it would be announced that Until We Win would be the final episode aired, and the series was peacefully retired. While Lordkat enjoyed playing and learning about the makings of each game, scripting and editing wasn't making UWW a one man job to create. Nonetheless, it was a great time all throughout.

This Week In Games

Every Saturday afternoon eastern time/ NYC time, both LordKat and Skitch host a podcast called This Week In Games where they look at gaming in any week and discuss it. TWIG is often hosted on Lordkat's live stream hosted by Justin TV, also hosted on his site.

The Future

On March 15th, 2011, a month later after her retirement from Until We Win, LordKaT officially left Channel Awesome/Blistered Thumbs/Thatguywiththeglasses , thanking everyone for the opportunities she was given as she decided to head out to do her own thing on JustinTV.

Despite leaving the site, LordKat still voiced Conan the Barbarian's god Crom in Part 6 of the Year Three special Suburban Knights.

As of June 2015, LordKaT is currently working a full time salaried job (which provides full benefits and a 401K) with an undisclosed New York Tech Company. Despite having a full time job, she still records podcasts as a hobby, often featuring members of her online community, which are uploaded to her own website

On 2023, LordKaT came out as a transgender woman.
