They say journalists never really score the point. But for Christian, this isn’t just a metaphor, it’s a way of life. By day, he navigates the ever-changing tides of the cryptocurrency market, juggling words like a seasoned editor and crafting articles that decipher jargon for the masses. However, when the PC goes into sleep mode, its activities take a more mechanical (and sometimes philosophical) turn.
Christian’s journey with the written word began long before the Bitcoin era. In the hallowed halls of academia, he honed his craft as a writer of articles for his university newspaper. This early love of storytelling paved the way for a successful stint as an editor at a data engineering company, where his victory in the first month’s trial funded a months-long supply of puppy and kitten treats – a testament to his dedication. to your furry companions (more on that later).
Christian then roamed the world of journalism, working at newspapers in Canada and even South Korea. He eventually settled at a local news giant in his hometown in the Philippines for a decade, becoming a news junkie. But then, something new caught his attention: cryptocurrency. It was like a treasure hunt mixed with storytelling – right up your alley!
Then he landed a killer job at NewsBTC, where he’s one of the go-to guys for all things crypto. He breaks these confusing things down into bite-size chunks, making it easy for anyone to understand (he salutes his management team for teaching him this skill).
Do you think Christian is all work and no play? No chance! When he’s not in front of his computer, you’ll find him indulging his passion for motorbikes. A true gearhead, Christian loves tinkering with his bike and savoring the joy of the road on his 320cc Yamaha R3. Once a speed demon who reached 190 km/h (a feat he vowed never to repeat), he now prefers leisurely strolls along the coast, enjoying the wind in his thinning hair.
Speaking of peace of mind, Christian has a group of furry friends waiting for him at home. Two cats and a dog. He swears that cats are much smarter than dogs (sorry, Grizzly), but he loves them all anyway. Apparently, watching your pets relax helps you analyze and write meticulously formatted articles even better.
Here’s the thing about this guy: he works a lot, but keeps himself fueled with enough coffee to get through the day – and some really delicious (Filipino) food. He says a delicious meal is the secret ingredient to a killer item. And after a long day of crypto crusade, he relaxes with some rum (mixed with milk) while watching slapstick movies.
Looking ahead, Christian sees a bright future with NewsBTC. He says he feels privileged to be part of an incredible organization, sharing his experience and passion with a community he values and with fellow editors – and bosses – he deeply respects.
So the next time you enter the world of cryptocurrencies, remember the man behind the words – the crypto-crusader, the greasy monkey and the feline philosopher all rolled into one.
