Personal Interests
As I write this, there are two main interests in my life.
First one is Photography. I’ve been very passionate about photography for over 7 years. It has replaced the piano as the create and artist outlet in my life. You can see some of my work uploaded to Instagram @asyomin or you can look at www.asyomin.com for better quality. Thanks to photography I was able to learn how to pay attention to details, I’ve learned a great deal about patience and most importantly I’ve learned to go the extra mile to achieve something new and unique. Overtime I go out to shoot, I often hold an idea of an photo that I’m trying to achieve. Getting that perfect shot requires planning and most importantly patience, because nothing ever happens perfectly on the first try. Sometimes I spend hours cold in the snowstorm or wet during heavy rain, or half asleep because its 6 am and I just drove 2 hours to catch sunset in some remote location. Photography taught me how to set goals, how to plan and who to capitalize on all the effort.
My second interest is Cryptocurrency, blockchain and the other emerging technologies that have been growing in that field. I’ve joined the crypto family in September of 2017, far too late to make any huge gains. There are no millions and lambos in this for me. My interest is in technology and how it will affect myself and the rest of the world. I of course participate in the crypto market and have set a goal to invest smart in order to pay for my sister’s and my own education at Temple University. I know that blockchain will be an essential component of many businesses and it will be extremely important to be proficient and knowledgeable about the benefits, drawbacks and applications of the blockchain technology. Trading and learning crypto has taught me how to perform detailed research and how to account for many opinions. On the daily basis I have have to sort through many empty opinions and search for facts to make sure that I have an understanding of what is happening in the crypto market.
