I've been on social media since 2006 (early MySpace and Xanga days) and here I am now - active on every single social media site! From that, my passion grew into a career, and now work doesn't feel like work because it's something I absolutely love doing.

During my solo trip to San Francisco, I was walking down the main street and came across a group of basketball fans. Embarrassingly enough, that day I was wearing my Toronto Raptors beanie - totally NOT the SF team's favourite. I was confused as to what was going on, so I asked a man standing across from them and he told me they were waiting for the Milwaukee Bucks players to go to their tour bus (they were the first team to break the SF Golden State Warriors 24-game winning streak). He told me his phone was dead, so I let him borrow my external charger. While waiting for his phone to charge, we ended up have a 2 hour conversation and he turned out to be OJ Mayo's uncle (a player on the Milwaukee Bucks' basketball team). He loved our conversation so much that he invited me to the SF Warriors vs. Bucks game that night in the Oakland Arena. 4th row on the court with post-game access to meet the players. He later told me he appreciated what a genuinely nice person I was because there aren't many people like that anymore and my personality will take me far in life. It was the most rewarding and exciting experience in my life.
