For my day job, I took a bit of a windy road before finding it. First I decided to study in Korea the summer after my first year of university, and ended up never leaving. I studied Korean in a university language center for a year before transferring to a Korean university where I happened upon a summer internship at my eventual future employer (Engineering & Construction) on the exclusive student job/intern message board. After finishing that internship I received an offer that I accepted during my last semester before graduation. And that was that.

For my nights and weekends gig at Cent (https://beta.cent.co) I had to make it. I first focused on becoming a super-user back in October of 2017. After that, I submitted a few un-returned emails to the founders and wrote over 50 blog posts on the project before finally receiving a follow up email asking if I wanted to chat with the two person founding team. We had an amazing first call which led to a second one where I presented a plan of what I could do for the project in terms of their social media and communications strategies. After that the team asked for my ideal conditions before making an offer to join the team which I happily accepted.

How many hours do you work in an average week?

Tbh I'm never not working these days, but to get specific I'm in the office (or traveling) for my day job Monday~Fridat from about 7~7. My work with Cent is done in my free waking hours 7 days a week, but it's kind of unfair to call that work since it doesn't feel like it.

This may seem like a lot (at least it kind of felt like a lot as I was writing it), but I am well rested, excercise every evening with my wife, read a lot, meet friends, blog daily, feel like I can do more and am just having a great time being alive.
