They say that journalists are always on the clock. For Christian, this is more than just a saying; it’s a way of life. By day, he adeptly navigates the constantly changing landscape of the cryptocurrency market, using his writing skills like a pro editor and creating pieces that simplify complex jargon for the general public. When his computer takes a break, his interests shift to more mechanical (and occasionally philosophical) endeavors.
Christian’s affinity for writing started long before the advent of Bitcoin. In the esteemed corridors of academia, he polished his skills as a feature writer for his college newspaper. This early passion for storytelling led to a successful role as an editor at a data engineering company, where an essay win in his first month provided a long-lasting supply of treats for his beloved pets – a true sign of his commitment to his furry friends (more on that later).
Christian then ventured into the world of journalism, working at newspapers across Canada and even in South Korea. Eventually, he settled at a major local news outlet in his hometown in the Philippines for ten years, where he became a dedicated news enthusiast. But then, he stumbled upon a new spark of interest: cryptocurrency. It felt like a thrilling treasure hunt entwined with storytelling—perfect for him!
This led him to an exciting position at NewsBTC, where he has become a key figure for all things crypto. He simplifies complex topics into digestible pieces, making them accessible for everyone (a skill he thanks his management team for teaching him).
Think Christian only works? Absolutely not! When he’s away from his desk, he’s likely engrossed in his love for motorbikes. A genuine gearhead, Christian enjoys tinkering with his bike and relishing the freedom of the open road on his 320-cc Yamaha R3. Once a speed enthusiast who hit 120 mph (a goal he promised himself never to repeat), he now favors more relaxed rides along the coast, enjoying the breeze in his thinning hair.
On a more relaxed note, Christian has a bunch of furry companions at home: two cats and a dog. He confidently asserts that cats are significantly smarter than dogs (sorry, Grizzly), but he cherishes them all the same. It seems that observing his pets lounging around enhances his ability to analyze and craft meticulously formatted articles.
Here’s the scoop on this guy: he works hard but keeps his energy up with enough coffee to power through the day – along with some truly scrumptious (Filipino) cuisine. He believes that a delightful meal is the secret ingredient to an outstanding article. After a busy day of crypto explorations, he relaxes with a smooth rum (mixed with milk) while enjoying slapstick comedies.
Looking to the future, Christian envisions a promising path at NewsBTC. He feels honored to be part of an incredible organization, eager to share his knowledge and enthusiasm with a community he cherishes and colleagues—editors and leaders—he holds in high regard.
So, the next time you delve into the cryptocurrency realm, remember the individual behind the words – the crypto crusader, the mechanic enthusiast, and the contemplative cat lover, all in one.
