Hello 
I am Geoffrey and i am in the crypto space since late 2016, for about more then a year i wanted (but because of other studies i wanted to finish there was a delay) to join the Ivan on Tech Academy because of expanding my interest in crypto and already do a lot of self study about the crypto economics and the underlaying fundamentals why Bitcoin and crypto as a whole are destined to succeed.
I hope to learn a lot from the Ivan on Tech Academy and from fellow students

Hi All.
I’m a civil engineer wanting to switch over to the crypto space.
I’m an avid researcher in every topic that I am interested in - Crypto being a big one. I’d love to use and add my skill set of creativity and research into the space and community.
Much love from a South African in London
Hello everyone!
My name is Will and I am currently a personal trainer focused on increasing longevity for my clients. A major trend line of my interests is emerging technology and I would identify myself as a futurist. I am quite new to programming, a true beginner besides the one course I took freshmen year in college. I really only got into crypto March of this year and thanks to Ivan my interest skyrocketed! I hope to find ways to integrate blockchain and the fitness industry to benefit more people and their long term health.
Excited to expand my knowledge base and add new skills!
Cheers
Hello my name if Javier. I am here to become a blockchain developer. I have been interested in crypto and crypto trading for quite sometime now. Id like to learn more about the core fundamentals. Which brought me here. I am truly grateful for the amazing cost. And I look forward to completing my education at this Academy. 
I’ve been in crypto for a short while and I have been getting deeper into this amazing space. I would love to be full time crypto so I can improve projects, work for projects, and start my own project. I really want to be a part of making cryptocurrency adopted, mature, have higher standards if that makes sense. I hope to meet great people on my journey.
My name is Wynand and I am from Kimberley, South Africa. Looking forward to starting my courses! Thanks

Hi Ricardo,
Welcome to the community! I see we are from same place,same time…
I have also just put myself a target to try blockchain coding… Let’s see how it works. The experience in the academy has been great so far. Hope it is the same for you!
I wish you all success!

Hey Guilherme, Campineiro!! let’s keep in touch. ricmariano gmail
Hi everyone, my name is Patrick.
I started programming back in 1979 on a TRS-80 Model 1 that was in my math classroom. I have never looked back since.
I am a technologist at heart and an IT Admin by trade, at the moment. I love making different tech work together to make a better experience for people. I see how many of these blockchain platforms and protocols can be combined in awesome ways to create new and better products, we are really starting to see this happening now.
Some other things that I really enjoy doing are fishing, tent camping, astronomy, and U.S. Constitution and law research and teaching on taxation in America.
I also have too many different websites and Facebook pages to give them all the proper amount time that they deserve.
I got into crypto mining in the early days of Bitcoin when it was still under $0.10. I was too short-sighted back then to recognize it’s potential and I sold all of my Bitcoin, such is life.
I started learning blockchain programming about 9 months ago by watching YouTube videos and reading Solidity docs and things like that. I finally found Ivan’s channel about 5 months ago and watching him pretty much everyday really got me more motivated to learn faster and deeper, so here I am.
I’m not sure yet if I want to do a full-time remote job with a company or do freelancing and maybe eventually some consulting in the crypto space.
Anyhow, I’m really excited to be here at the Academy and am looking forward to getting to know and learn from as many of you as possible.
Hey everyone, my name is Nicholas. I’ve been really passionate about crypto for a bit and watch Ivan daily. Figured it was about time I learned more about blockchain and get more involved.
Hey, my name is Richard, I first heard about crypto in 2012, I did a little research and couldn’t understand it so I shrugged it off as probably illegal. I didn’t hear about it again until 2017 and gave it a second look and have been hooked since. I wanted to dabble a bit in the programming side of crypto.
Hey all, nice to meet you! My name is Daniel and I’m from Germany. After buying my first Crypto 2 Years ago I got completely consumed by the Crypto and Blockchain Space.
My Goal is to learn everything that is needed to become a qualified Employee in the Industry. I hope to figure out in which way that could, or will happen during my study time here:)
Hi Stormie, thanks for the message and sorry it took so long to get back to you.
Hi my name is Bruno and i live in England. Never been a tech guy but came across crypto a few months ago.Now signed up to learn about it and programming. At the moment im working in a factory and want to change that.
Thanks.
Hi there,
I am Igna and I live in Zimbabwe. I am a self employed baker, homemaker and mom of three. In Zim we’ve had some really bad times economically and I’ve become interested in Crypto for the last few months. I am keen to learn as much as I can. I am trying to learn the lingo as it is a totally different language.
I am also keen to see how crypto can bring answers to the crisis that we face here in Zimbabwe. I want to be prepared for the future changes that I see is inevitable and I want to understand it.
I am looking forward to learn from you.
Blessings,
Igna
