They claim journalists never truly clock out, but for Christian, that’s more than a saying; it’s a way of life. By day, he navigates the constantly changing seas of the cryptocurrency market, using his words like a veteran editor to create articles that demystify the jargon for the general public. When his computer goes into hibernation mode, however, his interests take on a more mechanical (and occasionally philosophical) twist.
Christian’s affinity for the written word began long before Bitcoin came onto the scene. In the esteemed halls of his university, he polished his skills as a feature writer for the college newspaper. This early passion for storytelling paved the way for a fruitful role as an editor at a data engineering firm, where his first-month essay victory funded a long supply of treats for his dog and cat—a testament to his commitment to his furry friends (more on them later).
Christian then ventured into the realm of journalism, contributing to newspapers in Canada and even South Korea. Ultimately, he settled down at a prominent local news outlet in his hometown in the Philippines for a decade, becoming a true news enthusiast. Yet, something fresh caught his attention: cryptocurrency. It felt like a treasure hunt intertwined with storytelling—perfect for him!
Thus, he scored an incredible position at NewsBTC, where he’s recognized as one of the primary voices in the crypto world. He simplifies this complex information into digestible chunks, making it accessible for everyone (kudos to his management team for imparting this valuable skill).
Think Christian is all work and no play? Not at all! When he’s away from his desk, you’ll likely find him pursuing his love 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 milestone he promised never to repeat), he now prefers serene rides along the coastline, feeling the breeze in his thinning hair.
On the relaxation front, Christian has a bunch of furry companions waiting for him at home: two cats and a dog. He insists cats are much smarter than dogs (sorry, Grizzly), but he loves them all just the same. In fact, watching his pets lounging around helps him analyze and produce meticulously structured articles even better.
Here’s the scoop on Christian: He puts in a lot of hours, but he powers through with enough coffee to last the day—along with some truly tasty (Filipino) cuisine. He believes a delicious meal is the secret ingredient to crafting a remarkable article. After a long day of crypto exploration, he relaxes with some rum (blended with milk) while enjoying slapstick comedies.
Looking ahead, Christian envisions a bright future with NewsBTC. He expresses gratitude for being part of such an amazing organization, where he shares his knowledge and enthusiasm with a community he cherishes, along with editors and bosses he holds in high regard.
So, the next time you delve into the world of cryptocurrency, remember the man behind the words—the crypto crusader, the grease monkey, and the feline philosopher, all in one package.
