Early life and work
After graduating from San Diego State University, Montoya did freelance work such as filming weddings. During this time, Adam, finding inspiration from other early YouTube gaming commentators, decided to record and upload his own game commentaries.[2]
Work with Machinima

JETPAK
On November 5, 2014, Montoya announced that he and his associates had launched a multi-channel network, JETPAK. He wanted to create a network that did not contractually take advantage of YouTubers and their channels. The network is operated by former Machinima employees.[5]
The Paranormal Action Squad
On November 2, 2016, Montoya announced he would co-star with Scott Robison and Evan Fong in a new YouTube Premium original series, The Paranormal Action Squad. The animated comedy aired on November 16, 2016.[6]
Break from content creation and return
In 2018, Montoya slowed down producing YouTube videos, going from at least one video per week for most of his solo career to only releasing five videos in 2018.[7] Montoya did not officially state anything about a permanent retirement, but in guest appearances on friends' videos, he discussed taking a break from YouTube and video creation to get "passive income up and running, whether I'm doing this or doing that [...] looking heavily into real estate".[8] On August 29, 2020, during his return, he cited several reasons such as mental health and stress for his two-year absence.[9]
