GG Legends Episode 3: Aerial Powers

Finding purpose through gaming, Aerial Powers shares her story in the Gucci Gaming Academy’s mini docuseries

Guided by her father, Aerial Powers found her voice early as a young girl playing on the basketball courts in Detroit. With this strength and passion, she went on to not only play in the WNBA, but also become a leader in the gaming world as a co-owner of Team Liquid and Chair of its Diversity & Inclusion Task Force. Creating space for women and people of color, her legacy becomes a roadmap for how to channel inner determination to reach one’s dreams.
