My intro post...

in #introduceyourself6 years ago

Hello fellow Stemians,

I was introduced to Steemit recently by the wonderful Anja from @connecteconomy. It’s been a bit of a learning curve but really enjoying being here.

My 2 minute intro video is here

I’m originally from Ireland, now living in London.
My background is in music (piano, flute) and I’ve worked for the BBC Proms and BBC Radio 3.
I’m interested in the potential of blockchain and how it can improve the world we currently live in - no better place to learn about this technology than interacting on Steemit.

I enjoy writing about life, philosophy, and my crypto journey. I have a particular interest in society and culture and the impact of 4,000 years of patriarchy.
We’re so out of balance as a species and it’s time for embracing what we’ve devalued for so long - our inner wisdom, respect for nature, collaboration as oppose to competition, time for rest and reflection. It’s a new way of living for a new age. I hope you’ll join me on my journey!

I’d had the pleasure of meeting fellow Stemians in person last week @dougalporteus @oracle-d @adetorrent @teodora @colossus39 at the London Steemit meet up organised by the wonderful @redrica

I got featured in a few videos and photos…. ! (was too busy engrossed in conversation to take my own)

Cool video created by @redrica here

Hi and welcome here! When I started on steemit, my biggest problem was to find interesting people to interact with. So, to help newcomers getting started I created a directory with other interesting and or talented steemians to follow or interact with. Feel free to check it out at https://www.steemiandir.com I am sure it will help you find like-minded people. Enjoy your stay here and do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions!

Brilliant intro, well done, it was a pleasure to meet you at the meetup, it definitely feels to me that there is something special going on here !
You did miss the O out of my name, there is normally a bot on here that points that out, lol !
I got more votes for the video I posted about it than I have had before and did feature you quite a bit, looking forward to your philosophical posts, have fun !

Doh -sorry about the misspell.
Oh it must be me in the video and my magic touch that enhanced your upvotes 😁

Ha ha, maybe you should rename yourself as Midas ? Be blessed ! Big hugs x

Welcome to the chain.

If you're interested in society and culture you'll find steem fascinating - not least 'cos you still won't understand it a year from now, I'm still figuring it out.

Can't go far wrong with the London meet ups tho'.

Impressive to see you both already have a video and have participated in a meetup already! I have yet to do either but find the community and ecosystem amazing. It will be interesting to get your perspective given your media background.
