They say that journalists never truly clock out, and for Christian, this is more than a metaphor—it’s his way of life. During the day, he expertly navigates the ever-evolving landscape of the cryptocurrency market, using his skills as a seasoned editor to create articles that translate complex jargon for the general public. However, when his PC slips into hibernation mode, his interests take a more mechanical (and occasionally philosophical) turn.
Christian’s affinity for the written word took root long before Bitcoin became a household name. Within the esteemed walls of academia, he refined his abilities as a feature writer for his college newspaper. This early passion for storytelling opened doors to a fruitful career as an editor at a data engineering company, where his success in a first-month essay contest funded a hefty supply of treats for his beloved pets—a clear indication of his loyalty to his furry friends (more on that later).
Christian then explored the realm of journalism, contributing to newspapers in Canada as well as South Korea. Eventually, he found a home at a prominent local news outlet in his hometown in the Philippines, where he immersed himself in the world of news for a decade. However, a new interest soon grabbed his attention: cryptocurrency. It felt like a thrilling treasure hunt combined with storytelling—perfectly suited to his skill set!
This led him to a fantastic position at NewsBTC, where he serves as a key figure for all things crypto. He simplifies this complex subject into digestible pieces, making it accessible for everyone (with a nod to his management team for helping him develop this talent).
Think Christian’s all work and no fun? Absolutely not! When he’s away from his desk, you’ll discover him indulging in his love for motorbikes. A true automobile enthusiast, Christian enjoys tinkering with his bike and relishing the open road on his 320-cc Yamaha R3. Once a reckless rider who hit 120mph (a feat he swore never to repeat), he now prefers leisurely coastal rides, savoring the breeze on his thinning hair.
Speaking of relaxation, Christian is welcomed home by a bunch of furry companions. With two cats and a dog, he insists that cats are far more intelligent than dogs (sorry, Grizzly), but his affection for them all runs deep. He claims that observing his pets lounge around helps him fine-tune and write meticulously formatted articles even more effectively.
Here’s the scoop on Christian: he works hard but fuels his days with enough coffee to keep him energized—and indulges in some seriously delicious Filipino cuisine. According to him, a tasty meal is the secret ingredient to crafting a brilliant article. After wrapping up a long day of unraveling crypto complexities, he unwinds with a glass of rum (mixed with milk) while enjoying some slapstick comedies.
Looking to the future, Christian envisions a bright path with NewsBTC. He considers himself fortunate to be part of an incredible organization, sharing his knowledge and passion with a cherished community, alongside fellow editors and supervisors he profoundly respects.
So, the next time you venture into the world of cryptocurrency, remember the man behind the words—the crypto crusader, the grease monkey, and the feline philosopher, all rolled into one.
