Background
Hill received a bachelor of fine arts degree at the Cooper Union school of art. Before becoming a professional fighter, she worked as an animator in animation studios and as a bartender.
Hill is also a video gamer and cosplayer, and usually appears in costume before fights at Invicta. She has cosplayed as Dhalsim, Afro Samurai, a Fallout Vault Dweller and as one of The Warriors, among others.
Early career
Hill began her professional MMA career in 2014. She has amassed a win over future Invicta fighter Stephanie Skinner.
The Ultimate Fighter
In June 2014, it was announced that Hill was one of the fighters selected by the UFC to appear on The Ultimate Fighter: A Champion Will Be Crowned. She faced Carla Esparza in the preliminary round and lost via submission in the first round.
Ultimate Fighting Championship
Hill's first fight after The Ultimate Fighter was against Emily Kagan at the The Ultimate Fighter: A Champion Will Be Crowned Finale on December 12, 2014. Tecia Torres fought at UFC 188 and defeated Hill.
Hill faced Rose Namajunas at UFC 192 on October 3, 2015. She lost the fight by technical submission in the first round. She was subsequently released from the promotion.
Invicta FC
On November 17, 2015 Hill announced on her official Facebook page that she signed with Invicta FC. She made her debut for the promotion at Invicta FC 15 on January 16, 2016, and successfully notched a first round TKO victory over Alida Gray. Hill returned less than two months later on March 11, 2016, and knocked out former strawweight title challenger Stephanie Eggink in the second round, earning her first Performance of the Night bonus as a result of the finish.
Hill made another quick turnaround to face undefeated strawweight champion Livia Renata Souza for the title at Invicta FC 17 on May 7, 2016. She won the fight via split decision to become the new Invicta FC Strawweight champion.
UFC return
Hill and Jéssica Andrade were briefly linked to a bout at UFC 207. However, the fight never materialized for that event because of a rule in the UFC's anti-doping policy with USADA. Subsequently, Andrade was removed from that card with the pairing left intact and rescheduled to take place at UFC Fight Night: Bermudez vs. Korean Zombie on February 4, 2017. Andrade won the fight by unanimous decision. In addition, both participants were awarded Fight of the Night honors.
Hill faced Ashley Yoder on July 7, 2017 at The Ultimate Fighter 25 Finale. She won the fight by unanimous decision.
Hill is scheduled to face Nina Ansaroff at UFC Fight Night: Poirier vs. Pettis on November 11, 2017 in Norfolk, Virginia.
