Created by a blocked sockpuppet, supported by the usual mix of low quality and/or non-independent sources.
The subject's claim to fame appears to be having founded the company
Kabam, so redirecting the article there would be a reasonable course of action. Per the available coverage, her other achievements are not sufficient to justify a standalone article.

Comment - I see three reasonably good sources (VentureBeat and the two Forbes articles), that seem independent. The rest seem pretty poor. Though, with these existing, it can't be too far from notability. Having been created by a sockpuppet makes no difference for an article meeting

True, I only mentioned it to invite extra scrutiny. For example, the Forbes articles come from their contribution network, which lacks editorial oversight and is worthless for establishing notability. This is explicitly stated in Wikipedia's guidelines for
corporate notability and the same principle applies here.

Both sources (one is an interview) discuss the subject in the context of the company Kabam. I see this as a clear case of
WP:SINGLEEVENT and the place to discuss Liu's contribution is in the article about the company.

keep sources look okay. GH award says a lot IMO. Between all that I'd say we are above any reasonable definition of notability.

Just to be clear, while the award is a clear indication of notability, the bio that goes with it
[1] is nearly an ideal source. You'd best believe an award like that was vetted carefully.

Keep. The refs are fine. Forbes and inc.
