Holly has talked openly about how she deals with her anxiety, and began a Twitch stream called "Mental Health Mondays" to have discussions with viewers about coping mechanisms and general advice.

Per Holly, this series shares the same universe as DCA, but takes place a few decades before the start of the latter, with a crossover event already shown in one of the episodes. She most recently developed a Planescape-themed D&D series called "Trapped in the Birdcage" that she DMed, where her DCA costar Anna Prosser plays and Ross has also appeared as a guest (Nate, another DCA costar, has also played a guest NPC). She also began her own online D&D tutorial series called "The Friendly Table" and a beginner-friendly D&D livestream series "Divvy the Loot", where she plays an Aarakocra wizard named Fancy Boy. She joined her DCA costar Jared Knabenbauer, Ross, and several other members of Game Grumps on a podcast show of a 5E D&D campaign called "Dragons in Places" (DiP). She also made appearances in the Acq Inc spinoff series "The C Team". Since 2017, she has guest starred in four episodes of Penny Arcade's Acquisitions Incorporated.
She wrote a book when she was younger and says her next big project "is working on getting my (technically second) fantasy novel published". Holly earned a degree in Medieval History at UCSB and studied at the University of Edinburgh in Scotland, "specializing in folk magic and Medieval literature". She enjoys using art as a medium for storytelling, having it evoke questions such as "why does this character have scars weapons" and is especially drawn to otherworldly aspects, being heavily inspired by Planescape artist Tony Diterlizzi. She credits the storytelling aspect of D&D to being the "gateway to my entire career", with it molding how she shares her artwork and her stories with others online. Holly started playing Dungeons and Dragons in middle school or early high school, but says she actually first got "into D&D from playing the video games, like Baldur's Gate and Planescape: Torment." Her YouTube channel also hosts a series of video game playthroughs called Commander Holly Plays! She has also "worked in special effects, creating creatures and costumes in shops for Disney, Dreamworks, Adult Swim, and more." She was a cast member of the SyFy series Heroes of Cosplay. She was featured in Morgan Spurlock's documentary, Comic Con Episode IV: A Fan's Hope for her cosplay of Shepard, which she credits as responsible for her "start in YouTube". Her online pseudonym Commander Holly was inspired by Commander Shepard, the lead character of Mass Effect, one of her favorite video games. She has also enjoyed dressing up since she was five years old, and learned to craft and make costumes, which she began posting tutorials for on her YouTube channel. Since she was very young, Holly has "loved birds, nature hiking" and with Ross had adopted multiple pigeons, a dove, two cockatiels, a bearded dragon, and three cats. Holly was born in the greater Los Angeles area and resided there with her ex-husband, Ross O'Donovan (otherwise known as animator Rubber Ninja, a ''Game Grumps'' member and a brief guest on DCA).
Her character in DCA is Strix, a tiefling sorcerer. Kotaku has a detailed write-up of the allegations here.Holly Conrad (born May 22, 1986) is an artist, cosplayer, and YouTuber, also known as CommanderHolly. In the wake of the allegations, Knabenbauer lost over 100,000 YouTube subscribers and his production company Normal Boots announced that they had "mutually parted ways" with him. Several lewd photos of Knabenbauer also surfaced online after the allegations went public. Several fans came forward in the wake of O'Ferrall's comments with their own stories about Knabenbauer, including some who claimed they were underage when Knabenbauer solicited them for nude photos.
Shortly after Knabenbauer made his announcement on Twitter, O'Ferrall released a series of statements alleging Knabenbauer's infidelity, along with his soliciting of nude photos from fans on Snapchat and Tumblr.

Earlier this week, Knabenbauer announced via Twitter that he and his wife, professional cosplayer Heidi O'Ferrall, were divorcing, which led to a series of allegations emerging about his personal life and interactions with fans.
