Facts about me You Didn't Know! [Fireside PolyCast]

While I’ve been a blogger for over a decade at this point I still write some posts free hand. Things like these “micro-blogs” on Medium/LinkedIn, or my Fireside Codex on the home site. The only thing I really plan is the title haha! I figured today I’d share some information about me and my life, as I don’t usually. — — 1. I’m part Hispanic, and I grew up with a Mexican step dad as well. Meaning a lot of that culture got imbued into my way of life. I put salsa into everything, and I listen to Vincente Fernandez when I get sad. Orale. 2. Some people might know this from podcast interviews, but I built my first computer when I was 10 thanks to my uncle. I’ve built half a dozen since, and I use it daily for gaming or content creation. 3. I’ve worked for over a dozen employers and two dozen different roles. Anywhere from lifeguard to elevator operator, cashier, and even karaoke jockey. 4. I’m a massive gamer, even when I was young. Anything from Zelda to Pokemon, and even Halo and Diablo. I played on most consoles besides Sega ones, and the PS5. However literally all Nintendo’s, Xbox’s, PS1–4/PSP, etc. 5. I spent the 6 years after high school pursuing deep self-development instead of college, and I don’t regret it one bit. I truly think I learned far more in that time span than I would have in school. Not to say schooling is bad, but rather I wouldn’t have learned. 6. While singing is in my family, on both sides, I taught myself to sing by going to karaoke religiously for better half of a decade. You get anywhere from 1 to 4 songs a night. I’d go 3–4 nights a week, and practice as much as possible. 7. I’m dying to move to ATX and Singapore. 8. I love finding new tools and software, and being able to help people through those tools. Here is one I literally found this morning https://fliki.ai/ 9. I’m really good with Legos, like really good, and I would spend much of my life trying to build the best spaceship akin to Star Wars. Some of these are exposing my more youthful aspects of life, but being able to play with Legos as an adult I think is a very important skill. Not only do you help your hand eye coordination, 3D spatial reasoning, but it is good to play even as you get older. https://youtu.be/gswsQ8uNsYs If you want to keep reading: https://polyinnovator.space/17-facts-about-polyinnovator-that-you-didnt-know/ https://polyinnovator.space/polyinnovator-the-digital-polymath/
