(If you're not already familiar with who I am start here)
Updated May 19th, 2024 from Arizona.
For the last two years, I have been working on the product team at Paradox. Back in January I was promoted to a Product Manager. I've been overseeing all the product enhancements to our forms product. Roughly 10,000 - 15,000 forms are submitted a day. Just last year alone our conversational assistant interacted with 1 out of every 10 Americans.
Contrary has been on a mission to curate information about private companies. For the next month, I'm working directly with Kyle Harrison to produce interesting content around startups across industries.
I've been writing Pioneers Project for over a year now. To date, I've written 47 different articles. I write a new one each week. I'm on a mission to capture the stories, tactics, and qualities of innovators.
3 weeks ago, I got a new kitten. Her name is Luna. She's only 10 weeks old right now. All she wants to do is play. I'm slowly getting used to all the scratches on my body.
I just launched a test on my website. Using AI to generate common points that I need to reference for my original content. The goal is to see if it attracts any increase in search traffic, plus I hate having to explain things repeatedly but I don't want to write an overview of the topic. I'd rather spend my time connecting ideas and creating original content.
Since the beginning of 2024 I've been doing a learning sprint on branding. I've been reading a lot of biographies from the people that build some of the strongest brands. You'll find a lot of stories from them contained within my articles.
After getting halfway through my learning sprint I've been less focused on it for other topics. I like to read things that peaked my curiosity more right now.
I read multiple books at a time, chasing whatever I'm curious about in that moment. Right now I'm reading:
• Read Write Own by Chris Dixon
• A Map of Consciousness by David Hawkins
• Walt Disney by Neal Gabler
I just finished:
• Losing My Viginity by Richard Branson
• Grinding It Out by Ray Kroc
• Onward by Howard Schultz
