Hello Steemit!steemCreated with Sketch.

Hello All,

My name is Gary. I’m from California, I’m brand new to the platform, and looking to become part of the Steemit community. I recently heard about steemit from a great interview with @andrarchy on Crypto Talks with @anialexander and just had to sign up.
I’ve been considering starting up a blog or website for a while now, but just can’t seem to pin down exactly what I’d like to cover. I’m a father of 1, soon-to-be father of 2! I’m a career counselor, college instructor, and crypto n00b! So, it’s safe to say that I am interested in a LOT of topics. Do I write a career blog? Parenting blog? Should I write about getting started in the crypto game? With all of this considered, I decided Steemit would be a great platform, since there’s such a wide variety of topics covered in this community.

I’m really excited to get started on here! Here’s a pic of me and my little monster!

I’m hoping to learn more about the crypto space (so I don’t lose my a$$), meet some interesting people, and share some of my experiences from the spaces I occupy - dad, teacher, counselor.

I’m looking forward to gaining steem… and making more bad jokes. See you around!

Thanks for the info! To be honest, I'm still VERY confused about how this whole Steem power/dollars/rewards business works LOL. I suppose I'll get the hang of it over time. I have been browsing through some of the posts, and I really like this community so far. I've never been a member of another community like this, so everything is new to me.

Take care!

Welcome. Take your time and just look around for a bit. Read and ask questions and you'll have it down in no time. Welcome aboard!

Thanks! Yeah, I think I'll just be more of an observer for now.
