Who are you really? Introduce yourself! | My first blog story

"As long as you keep it short, they will read it. If it's organic, even better, they will enjoy it" he said.

I had just finished discussing with a former colleague about attention span and how difficult reading has become. And that's when he gave me that solid piece of advice. So I decided to put it to test.

I wrote an article on medium about "How to be a Kick-ass Entrepreneur" (remind me to share using my next post), which in my opinion means to own the business, or think like you do. It was an honest interpretation of my work experiences, coupled with valuable books and articles I have read over the years.

Who would have thought that a junior consultant in materials engineering who spent years studying and supervising quality assurance tests, could take a totally different path into marketing communications. Well, that's exactly my story!

I am a tech consultant, with experience in marketing communications, product development and data analytics. And all these skills were developed from different startups I have worked for at home and abroad. But before I ventured into tech and marketing, I worked as a quality assurance intern for the biggest beverage manufacturer in the world (yes, you guessed it correctly), and also as a junior consultant for an engineering servicing firm.

And my mission is to be able to use my acquired skills and knowledge to proffer solutions to problems, irrespective of whether it's tech or engineering related. Few years ago I would have said it is not possible to be a jack of all trades, but it's 2018 and everyday in the news you hear of musicians, actors, traders and even medical professionals venturing into block-chain technology and kicking ass with it. So yeah, anything and everything is possible, with the right mindset (create-innovate-iterate) and access to information.

Found out about steemit from @Dannytroniz. Danny is always informed with the latest trends in crypto and new technologies; and that's a very useful trait for success. S/O to you bro, thanks for introducing me to the platform.

Cash is still king! So i'm here to exploit the opportunities around steem, and offer my expertise in design thinking, growth hacking, and go-to-market strategies. I'm constantly looking for opportunities to mentor young startup founders or join their board of advisers, please send me a message let's talk.

I think I should take my friend's advice now and keep it short. My only hope is that so far, you've enjoyed getting to know about me.
