It's been almost a year and I'm finally writing my introduction!

Hello, everyone! I’m so glad I’m finally doing this introduction!

Well, I’ve been a member of the community since last July 2016 (OMG It’s been almost a year!) but I was sorta hesitant with what I can do here. All I do was browsing and reading contents posted by fellow Steemit people. It is amazing how the community grows from what I remember it last year. But I never really interacted with y’all - which I think is the worst decision. I missed one year of opportunity to grow with the community! But I’m doing it now so I think that should count 😉

My name is Daisyrie. I live in the Philippines, more specifically in the city that was devastated by Typhoon Haiyan, Tacloban. That was a tough, very tough, year for all of us but slowly, we survived. When Haiyan happened, I was on my last year in college doing thesis, so that was very challenging knowing that we only have few months left in the semester and the internet and electricity were all cut out. Long story short, I managed to finished my degree in Computer Science and was I able to teach Information Technology for a short period before I became a full-time web developer in a local company here in Tacloban.

Before I got into crypto, my boyfriend and I was focused on the design company we started- Teembr Designs. We also learn Facebook marketing - creating ads, analyzing reports, devising strategies for content and social media posts. I can say we lived in the internet 24/7 and managed our business all the time. We could not get our hands off of it as it was our bread and butter.

That is why when we stumbled Ethereum and Steemit last year, we did not take it seriously. I did not take it seriously. I invested a few bucks on Eth and let my Steemit account stagnate. It was just early this year when Eth started making more noise that it got our attention. Crypocurrency is a whole different level. We got to get the ride. And so we did! We made the right decision to put part of our profit from our design company invested in crypto. I still have a lot of reading to do in order to catch up but this will be a fun journey.

Just a quick reminder for the newbies who wants to get in too, DYOR. Do you own research. And together, to the moon! 🚀🌕

PS. If you ever need help in web dev, setting up your Shopify store, FB Marketing, designs, crypto or if you’re planning to visit Tacloban haha, it will be my pleasure to help.

I so love my cat, I need her picture included in my introduction. HAHA 😺
