Hi everyone! I’m JL I come to crypto with 20+ years of Linux sys admin experience. Working as a consultant for big companies like IBM, banks, big pharma… In my work environment I do a lot of shell scripting to automate IT infrastructures. In my free time I have made my own android apps with the android sdk and lately with google’s flutter framework.
In March I opened a can of (crypto) worms at the time I didn’t realize where this was all going. I started by watching a lot of YouTube videos and slowly investing; I wish I went all in at that time :stuck_out_tongue:
Been watching Ivan daily for the past few months and now registered to the academy and on my way to expend my coding skills to crypto and improve my investment skills. I also practice ashtanga yoga daily to fix the bad posture from geeking too much :wink:

PS: Ivan if you are still sick get a “Neti pot” or get one for next time :stuck_out_tongue:

Hello everyone, glad to be on board. My name is Cody Wittekind and I’m from Columbus, Ohio (US). By day I work in the educational materials sector, as a producer of digital content for Zaner-Bloser (Highlights) a company that specializes in language arts materials such as handwriting, spelling, grammar ect.

Got my BFA from Ohio State University in Art & Technology and since then have had a very multi-disciplinarian art practice. I make music under the alias “Lil Known Fact” and also have been minting my visual/video/animation work as NFTs under that name on Rarible. I recently released a children’s book titled “Where’s My Mask?” on amazon as well.

Got into crypto just in time in Mid-March of this year to get some juicy low prices and have been pretty hardcore about learning everything I can about different projects, technical analysis and so on.

I’d really like to integrate some new programming skills I gain here to try to make some solutions to many of issues and inefficiencies I find in both my day job and my art practice.

If you’d like to see my music/art/book or just chat me up on twitter/linkedin my linktree page has all that: https://linktr.ee/KnownFact

Hi there my name is Alex Michaels, I have been a member of the Ivan On Tech Academy since June 2020, and have really enjoyed both the courses and the community. I have completed 3 certifications with the Academy to date, and this Fintech 101 course will be my 4th (while I am also studying the Blockchain Developer Bootcamp, aided by my excellent mentor Kenneth Zambrano). I am a private investor and also the CMO at a very exciting and Crypto-based start up called Chasyr, who I initially joined as work experience while I studied at the academy but also have now moved up from Telegram monitor, to Comms Strategist and most recently CMO. To learn more about me please feel free to add me on Linked In at https://www.linkedin.com/in/alex-michaels-chasyrcmo/ and I would be honoured and very pleased if my fellow students also followed us on our journey at Chasyr (we are on LinkedIn but also Titter, Facebook, Instagram, Telegram, Discord and our website Chasyr.com explains what we are seeking to achieve in an Exec Summary I wrote, also linked to the homepage).

I just signed up for Ivan on Tech courses, and I wanted to introduce myself to you so that we could get started right. I am a 55 year old Project Manager with an engineering and construction background. When I was first starting in college in 1985 I was a computer science major, and had a father who taught me programing in the 70s and 80s. I even designed a computer dating program for my high school that made quite a bit of money for the student council, though the 512K computer it ran on for several days and nearly overheated several times! Old basic, fortran, and pascal programing languages.

I’m Mark, from Glasgow.
Before June 2020, I knew nothing of blockchain technology or even much at all about computing/IT. I worked in construction and offshore in manual roles. My limit was sending the occasional email and using Ableton Live for making music as a hobby. I somehow stumbled into learning about IT then I fell into AWS and managed to pass the Solutions Architect exam. Throughout my learning I have felt an attraction to blockchain, so, here I am!

Hi, I am Amanda!
I am a nationally certified modern psychoanalyst in private practice in NYC. Prior to that I was a professional dancer. From what my careers have taught me …to be a good choreographer, it is advisable to be a dancer first. One cannot be a good psychoanalyst unless one has been a patient first. So, here I am with passion for crypto and the same principles. Here to learn all I can to become all I need to become in order to understand the crypto world and participate with gold star standards in whatever this will lead me to next. Cheers to everyone in this sector. Hit me up especially if you are in nyc @amandalenox

Best,
AL

Hi Guys
I’m Wil and I enrolled yesterday. At end of 2016 I discovered Bitcoin. I bought some and traded a bit. I got a lot of knowledge from youtube. I listened to so many crypto specialists, but Ivan always jumped out because of his infectious enthusiasm. Not only that but in many interviews he shows his deep knowledge in this matter. In this Ivan on tech courses I like to increase my knowledge in this branch.

Hello, there!
I am Dana, a musician- violinist living in the USA, and I have had my first crypto experience this past summer during the quarantine; I got to be more and more interested to expand my very basic knowledge about it and block chain, which made me decide to take this course hoping that my brain can handle all the information I get here considering that I have no experience at all I have never done anything related to programming in the past.
I must say that I respect Ivan for what he is doing here an on his youtube channel and also enjoy his personality; I hope I can learn a lot from here; I will do my best :slight_smile:
