They claim journalists never genuinely clock out. Yet for Christian, that’s not merely a figure of speech; it’s a way of life. During the day, he maneuvers through the constantly evolving currents of the cryptocurrency market, employing language like an adept editor and producing articles that clarify the technical language for the general public. However, when his computer enters sleep mode, his interests shift towards a more mechanical (and occasionally philosophical) direction.
Christian’s adventure with the written word commenced long before Bitcoin emerged. Within the revered corridors of higher education, he refined his skills as a feature writer for his college newspaper. This initial passion for narrative set the stage for a fruitful period as an editor at a data engineering company, where his first-month essay triumph financed a months-long supply of treats for both dogs and cats – a reflection of his commitment to his furry friends (more on that later).
Subsequently, Christian explored the landscape of journalism, contributing to newspapers in Canada and even South Korea. He ultimately established himself at a major local news outlet in his hometown in the Philippines for a decade, transforming into an absolute news fanatic. Yet, something novel piqued his interest: cryptocurrency. It resembled a treasure hunt intertwined with storytelling – perfectly suited for him!
Thus, he secured an impressive position at NewsBTC, where he stands as one of the key figures for all matters related to crypto. He simplifies this complex subject into digestible segments, ensuring anyone can grasp it (he expresses gratitude to his management team for instilling this ability in him).
Do you think Christian is all about work and devoid of leisure? Not a chance! When he isn’t glued to his screen, you’ll catch him immersing himself in his enthusiasm for motorbikes. A genuine gearhead, Christian enjoys tinkering with his bike and relishing the thrill of the open road on his 320-cc Yamaha R3. Once a speed enthusiast who reached 120mph (a feat he pledged never to attempt again), he currently favors relaxed rides along the coastline, relishing the breeze in his thinning hair.
Speaking of relaxation, Christian has a bunch of furry companions awaiting his return home. Two cats and a dog. He insists that cats are significantly more intelligent than dogs (sorry, Grizzly), but he cherishes them all regardless. Apparently, observing his pets simply lounging around aids him in analyzing and crafting meticulously formatted articles with even greater precision.
The interesting thing about this individual: He toils hard, but sustains himself with ample coffee to survive the day – along with some incredibly delectable (Filipino) cuisine. He claims that a scrumptious meal is the secret ingredient to a compelling article. After a lengthy day of crypto advocacy, he relaxes with a glass of rum (mixed with milk) while enjoying slapstick comedies.
Looking forward, Christian envisions a luminous future with NewsBTC. He expresses his gratitude for being part of an amazing organization, sharing his knowledge and enthusiasm with a community he holds dear and fellow editors – and superiors – he profoundly respects.
So, the next time you venture into the realm of cryptocurrency, remember the individual behind the words – the crypto crusader, the grease monkey, and the feline philosopher, all encompassed in one.
