Hello All,
My name is Mitch, I currently reside in North Carolina, US but raised in Kansas.
Served 5 years in the Marines, doing tech work. Now I currently do Support work for PaaS technologies.
I first got into Crypto back in Dec 2017, realizing I missed BTC opportunity, I had an interest in mining, so I got into mining Vert Coin… … …
Also setup some nodes for Storj back then.
But now I’m looking to get more into the developmental side of it and see where things go.

Hi lads!
I’m so happy and grateful to be here. Just as of today, I’ve decided to give a go to this academy as I felt, like I did back in 2017, that Ivan is honest and trustworthy fella with great knowledge in, which appears to be my new interest, CRYPTO!
On top of ALL I also decide to have a small experiment, in terms of showing myself and everybody else that it is possible to learn something like this without previous experience, so…have fun and see you around.

Hello,
My name is Aaron and I just joined Ivans academy.
I use to have a regular job in the real estate field, but after being let go due to covid, I started learning about crypto and blockchain. Initially I saw it only as potential for gains, but as I got more into it I became really excited about the future of this industry. It feels like we are at the brink of something that will truly reshape the world as we know it.
I am super excited to connect to this amazing community and learn more about blockchain and cryptocurrencies.
My goals are to learn programming and become an expert in the industry. And one day I may even start a project of my own, who knows?!

Hi All,
My name is Glenn. I am from the Netherlands and am the co-founder and director of two businesses there. Unfortunately, one of them (a boutique hotel) is currently being hit hard by a lot of (imo unfair) measures and bureaucracy due to Covid. I have been in crypto since 2017. In my opinion and probably everybody’s opinion here crypto and blockchain is the future and potential solution to make the world a better and more fair place. After following Ivan’s shows for quite some time, I thought it was time to learn more indepth about the crypto world. Hopefully, I can contribute, meet nice people and gain some knowledge. Let’s see what the future brings.
Cheers
Glenn

I am an author and writer and have my own website.
I Do understand basic HTML but am very interested in learning how to construct and run a block chain. Not for crypto currency which I understand and have some of, but as a way to assist the community. I have some interesting ideas for a project and so want to learn block chain so i can put those ideas into practice.

Hello all:
My name is Nando. I am 29 years old. I’m Peruvian but have lived in California most of my life. I enjoy arts of all kinds. I try to stay creative in whatever I put my efforts into I would say it’s my niche. I am a Corporate Specialist for a Bank. I never knew what I was meant to do growing up until I realized I was obsessed with the finance industry and learning how the economy works. I rooted out of banking for a bit and jumped into the insurance industry for a few years. Now I am back in the banking industry doing Corporate banking and ever since have been eager to get in depth about investments and blockchain tech. On my spare time I enjoy long hikes or I am creating things of all kinds whether it’s writing, painting, graffiti art, refurbishing projects or cooking- sweets are my Kryptonite.
Thank you guys and I’m looking forward to this awesome class. Loving everything so far especially the community vibe.
-Nando
