LONDON, ENGLAND: Bee, a gaming industry professional in London, had a bit of a tough time when she was around nine years old. She felt "isolated" and "depressed," and it led her to act differently than other kids her age.

But Bee has always been proud of her smarts. "I love reading books, and I love challenging my brain," she said.

When she was just 13, Bee was in Mensa, a group for super-smart people, with an IQ in the top 0.5% in the UK. Her parents often encouraged her to show others how capable she was.

However, as Bee grew up, she felt like she didn't use her intelligence as effectively as she could have. The test she took as a teenager is famous for measuring a person's IQ.
