Survivor
Mamba started out on the dominant Geeks Tribe, which won the first two immunity challenges of the season. Skatevivor was Mamba's first ORG ever, and this fact immediately endeared her to Eric, who wanted to work with her and help her have a positive first ORG experience. Despite this initial connection with Eric, Mamba failed to make any particularly strong bonds with her Geeks tribemates and became a potential target due to being one of the less active members of her tribe.

When it came time for the Geeks Tribe to finally go to Tribal Council, Mamba was saved by Clay getting a strike in the challenge, making him the obvious target over her. At Swap, Mamba swapped to Freaks 2.0 with fellow OG Geeks Eric, Gabe, and West and the four of them formed a majority alliance called The Greaks. After no one took the Greed necklace, the vote was unclear on the Freaks 2.0 tribe. Morgs and Liam wanted Mamba gone due to her inactivity, while Gabe and West wanted Steph out in order to protect their OG tribemate Mamba. The four of them ended up Tatsuing the vote between Steph and Mamba in their alliance chat, with Tatsu choosing Steph, sparing Mamba from the vote. Steph voted Mamba on her way out, infuriating Mamba. From this point on, Mamba struggled with the realities of the game and expressed wanting to quit in her confessional.

At Merge, Mamba had few strong connections, especially after Eric left the game. Mamba received another vote at the first Merge tribal in case of an idol, and was generally seen as being towards the bottom of the Dweebs Tribe after she was excluded from the Slick Six majority alliance. At the Auction, Mamba won a challenge advantage for the next immunity challenge. After Bella lost her vote in the Auction, Becky Lee sought revenge for Mia's blindside and teamed up with Gabe, Liam, Mamba, and West to turn the game on its head. Gabe and Liam targeted Bella specifically as a social threat, and she was blindsided in a 6-1-1 vote.

Through the next handful of votes, Mamba stuck close to Liam and Gabe and worked with them to vote out Becca, Morgs, Nathan, and West. When Liam won immunity at Final Four, he targeted Gabe as his biggest competition for the win. Mamba couldn't bring herself to vote for Gabe initially, so she planned to throw her vote on Becky Lee, potentially causing a 2-2 tie if Gabe also voted Becky Lee. Liam momentarily convinced her to vote for Gabe, but at the last second Mamba intentionally self-voted (which was not against the rules of Skatevivor at the time). At the same time, Gabe convinced Becky Lee to change her vote from him to Mamba, sending Mamba out of the game in a 2-1-1 vote.

At Final Tribal Council, Mamba did not ask any questions and voted for Becky Lee to win.

Trivia

 * Mamba's intentional self-vote at Final Four prompted a new rule addition against intentional self-votes starting in Season 2,.
