What’s good everyone, my name is Marcos and I grew up in California. I’m only 22 but I want to be successful by helping out others that are disadvantaged and voiceless. I currently am a welder’s apprentice (construction) and also work in a hobby shop. This is my first semester nor going to school in my whole life, but it’s also been the time of my life that I’ve grown and learned the most. I have big goals to reach and will not be an employee the rest of my life. I want to learn blockchain and crypto programming so that I can start a charitable organization off of it

Hi everyone. My name is Vince, I’m an aircraft engineer living near Geneva (not the one in New York) looking to change tracks. I’ve been a faithful follower of Good Morning Crypto for quite a while, and miss it!! I used profits from some of the insights I gained there to fund this program, so this education is now considered one of my crypto holdings. Looking forwards to learning more!

Hey all!
I am an inspired person who seeks to find a place in this industry in which I can help humanity as a whole. I have spent a number of years learning about the world and I have come to realise that the few have disproportionate control over the many - I would very much like to address this issue.
Previous to this I have experience in the health and fitness community, I spent years learning about the body and mind as well as alternative practices of self-healing. Now I find myself almost backed into a corner due to the specific restrictions imposed on my field of work as a result of the current global situation.
Anyone who wishes to connect please send me a message!
Hi Everyone!
My name is Tristan, I’m a recent graduate from South Africa. Having come from a finance and investment background I am extremely interested in DeFi and blockchain technology as a whole. I have decided to enroll in the Ivan on Tech Academy to advance my knowledge, learn how to code and network with individuals.
I pride myself in my organisational skills to balance my commitments. I am ambitious and remain motivated to put my heart into any task, as I see my work as a representation of myself. I enjoy generating new ideas and devising feasible solutions to broadly relevant problems. I look forward to the challenge of completing Ivan on Tech academy courses this year and the prospect of turning theoretical knowledge into practical value for any organisation I work for, truly excites me.
Hello everyone,
My name is Tanya. I’ve been slowly learning about crypto currency since jan2020 and I would now like to make it a part of a new career. I’ve been following Ivan on YouTube for awhile while now and decided to join the academy. Hope everyone here will achieve their goals.

Hi, I am Amee. I quit my work when I realised I am not made to work under anyone, and wanted to be a home-maker. I also homeschool my kids. I have recently started investing in cryptocurrencies and is interested in learning more about it. I am happy, that I didn’t have to do a lot of searches and researches, and that in here, there is a platform that could provide me what I intend to learn. So thank you, Ivan for taking the time from your life and giving us this opportunity. I am also hoping to teach about cryptocurrency to my kids.
Hi everybody,
I am Simon, originally a professional guitarist turned recording studio engineer from London. The studio industry declined over the last 15 years and has killed a large part of it off. I still write and produce music, mainly for my wife who is a singer and still love it dearly.
To this point, though not a gambler, I have tried leverage trading and I’d say I have probably broken even so not much to write home about. I was told to invest into a smart contract last year by a friend and it paid off quite well and it got me interested in the idea of building one myself.
For now I just want to get to grips with the basics in the academy and see if it takes me in any particular direction.
Hello my name is Volodymyr, i was following the channel Ivan in YouTube about Blockchain and I hope to learn quickly and be lucky like you guys!
HI everyone, I hope you’re having a great day!
My name is jocelyn. I go by @financesensei on social media when I decided to start a community for anyone who wanted to learn and share their interest in this space. I discovered Ivan’s channel recently and decided to start the course to further educate myself and help out my community members.

Hey guys, my name is Louis and im 24 years old. I began my crypto journey in 2016 when I tried to lear how to mine, but i did not have the funds nor the technical capabilities to do so. Now here I am 5 years later, back in the crypto world, trying to learn as much as possible.
Hi everyone, my name is Aoife. Im 22 and i would love to have a future carrer in crypto and I decided in 2021 Im going to start. My friend showed me the academy and I joined straight away. Im eager to learn about this new technology and see what i can achieve in the future 
Welcome, Amee. I share your sentiments. I homeschooled my children for four years, so I know that you have your hands full and are wearing so many hats. I’ve been in the academy for about five weeks, and am delighted with the variety of information, and the way that it is presented. I wish you success in your path.

Greetings, my name is Justin and I’m from California. I’ve been investing in crypto for awhile but wanted to really expand my knowledge base on Blockchain and it’s rapidly expanding utility. Excited to be a part of the academy and it’s community.
Hi everyone, I ran into one of Ivan’s videos on Odysee a couple of weeks ago and was looking to make a career change, so the timing was perfect. I have a decent amount experience with programming. Mostly VBA for automating spreadsheet and database work, but I found this to be a dead end, so I’m very excited to be able to get into something where my skills will be in demand and I can go far.
Thank you SmilingDog !!

Hi Everyone, I’m Dawie, form South Africa. I’m a photographer and cinematographer by trade but have decided to make the move to Full Time crypto. If I can just travel with one laptop around the world to do my work ( after COVID that is!) that would be a massive change from lugging around a ton of gear to do my work! Ofcourse Crypto pays more, as my industry has been decimated by COVID.
