Alright guys, I'm looking forward to an amazing AMA with Lightning Works. We're here to learn about everything regarding Lightning Works. We have a wonderful guest here. We have Roberto. I'm looking forward to hearing about
lightning work so what you guys have going on over there? Yeah definitely thanks for having us and what's your name? My name is Davie and thank you. I'm the spokesperson for media as well as one of the
He contributors so nice to meet you. Likewise, likewise, and thank you for having us on. Excited to be here. I haven't done an AMA in like a couple of weeks, so I might be a little rusty, but it's 2023 and I'm excited to get back on.
Wow, I'm glad that you're joining us for the for the new year as our first AMA as well as yours. I'm guessing in a long time. So that's wonderful to hear. So tell us a little bit about yourself Roberto. Who are you and how do you and what way do you represent lightning words? So yeah, I'm DCMO for lightning.
I've been the CMO since we kind of launched our marketing efforts back in August with the end of July and I have a digital marketing and sales background. I was the top sales performer for
or region cruise lines here from the US or there international. So some of you guys might have heard of them. And then I started my own personal brand back in 2017 as the fantasy football rapper. This was after having like a midlife crisis, so to speak. I was really good at still
I always looked at myself as a creator. So I ended up going to LA for acting and I was really good. I got a lot of great feedback. I signed on with Asia right away. So I was really proud of that. But one thing I noticed is I had
in memorizing lines. So that's how the personal brand came because before that I was always into rap music and writing, I got a journal, it wasn't a degree. But what I realized as much as I loved acting, it's really not acting that I enjoyed it was performing, being on camera, talking, but speaking my truth.
So I became a fantasy football rapper, which was a mix of my love for sports and particularly fantasy football and my love for hip hop music and writing. So I would wrap my predictions. I did that for several years up until last year, where it was really difficult for me to scale because I didn't have the
the resources to build out the team and all my time went on, you know, just doing a good job for my clients or my paying customers, which I did. But like I said, it was tough to scale. So I decided when I moved to Puerto Rico, actually, I was influenced through Web 3.
I had access to all these crypto OGs. Made you might have heard of like Brock Pierce, Michael Turf, and I just became a sponge. I have bought my first Bitcoin back in 2017, but I didn't know anything about it. That's why I bought it at the top, sold at the bottom. But when I started
meeting from people in Puerto Rico and I asked what they did it was like everybody's like crypto crypto and I saw that were very successful because they weren't really doing much during the day except just hanging out or whatnot so I was like wait there might be something to this crypto thing that I had just disregarded after you know my experience with this
