In 2020 I was at a crossroads after graduating college, either:

- find a job in mechanical engineering (my degree)

- join the US Navy as a nuclear engineer 

couldn’t  find a mechanical engineering job so I went to the military processing station for the Navy, and was told I couldn’t join because among other things I had lasik eye surgery 

soon after I got a job in web2 marketing for a year + I started doing crypto content on YouTube/other crypto based video platforms on the side

finally in 2021 I applied to this place called Offchain Labs, a 13 person startup who said they were scaling ethereum 

convinced leadership I could make some sort of a difference as a community manager (when at the time I had 0 formal experience) - and 4 years later here we are 😊
