Hi everyone! Nice to meet you!
My name is "AlgosWithAmber", and, as the username implies, I'm a nerdy doctoral student who likes talking about tech, statistics, and programming. I'm also a vegan who loves cooking spicy, nutritious food. Mexican style is my normal favorite, but I also like Asian-style cuisine and American-style breakfast food.
I currently live in the United States. I enjoy making tutorials about the R Programming language, doing book reviews, and talking about finance and tech. I also enjoy running, calisthenics, and staying active. Check out this hiking picture from the Garden of the Gods in Colorado!
I am currently working on completing my doctorate in education. I am also working through the visa process and hoping to spend some time in the EU shortly.
I should note that I have a little bit of experience with Hive. From 2019 to 2021, I dove headfirst into the entire cryptocurrency ecosystem and built up a pretty large presence talking about everything blockchain. I ended up getting a really amazing job as a stockbroker, which, unfortunately, prohibited me from doing crypto advocacy, so I had to leave the space for a while. As we all know, jobs don't last forever, and now that I'm free from the constraints of corporate censorship, I wanted to get back into the crypto/blockchain community.
I'm pretty much starting this new account from scratch, so feel free to say hi, share recommendations for your favorite communities to join, or point me towards any "how-to" guides that can get me up to speed on what I've missed over the past few years.
Best,
Amber
