They say journalists never truly clock out, and for Christian, this isn’t just a saying—it’s a way of life. By day, he navigates the ever-evolving landscape of the cryptocurrency market, using his writing skills like a seasoned editor to create articles that translate complex jargon for the everyday reader. However, when his PC hits hibernate mode, his interests shift to a more mechanical (and occasionally philosophical) realm.
Christian’s journey with writing began long before the dawn of Bitcoin. In the esteemed corridors of academia, he refined his skills as a feature writer for his college newspaper. This early passion for storytelling paved the way for a successful role as an editor at a data engineering firm, where a winning essay during his first month funded a lengthy supply of treats for his beloved pets—a true testament to his loyalty to his furry friends (more on that later).
Christian then ventured into the world of journalism, contributing to newspapers across Canada and even in South Korea. Finally, he found his footing at a prominent local news outlet in his hometown in the Philippines, where he immersed himself in the world of news for a decade. But then, a new fascination emerged: cryptocurrency. It felt like a treasure hunt entwined with storytelling—perfectly aligned with his interests!
This led to an exciting opportunity at NewsBTC, where he’s recognized as a leading voice for all things crypto. He distills this often perplexing subject into digestible pieces, making it accessible to everyone (he credits his management team for helping him hone this skill).
Think Christian’s life is all work and no leisure? Far from it! When he’s away from his computer, he indulges his passion for motorbikes. A true gearhead, Christian delights in tinkering with his bike and enjoying the freedom of the open road on his 320-cc Yamaha R3. Once a speed enthusiast who hit 120 mph (a feat he promises never to repeat), he now favors relaxed rides along the coast, relishing the breeze through his thinning hair.
Speaking of relaxation, Christian has a crew of furry companions waiting for him back home—two cats and a dog. He insists that cats are far more intelligent than dogs (sorry, Grizzly), but he loves them all equally. Apparently, observing his pets as they lounge around enhances his ability to craft meticulously organized articles.
Here’s the kicker about Christian: he works a lot, but he fuels his days with enough coffee to keep him energetic—and some seriously delicious Filipino cuisine. He believes that a great meal is the secret ingredient to a standout article. After a long day of crypto adventures, he unwinds with a unique blend of rum and milk while enjoying slapstick comedies.
Looking forward, Christian envisions a bright future with NewsBTC. He feels fortunate to be part of an extraordinary organization, sharing his knowledge and passion with a community he cherishes, along with editors and mentors he holds in high regard.
So, the next time you delve into the realm of cryptocurrency, remember the man behind the words—the crypto crusader, the grease monkey, and the feline philosopher, all rolled into one.
