crtyx // but you can call me Curtis ๐Ÿ‘‹. 28 y/o entrepreneur based in the United Kingdom ๐ŸŒ specialising in management, marketing, organic and ethical engagement, creative services and SaaS. You can find me on LinkedIn๐Ÿกญ, Twitter๐Ÿกญ and Instagram๐Ÿกญ. Some of my interests include loud heavy metal ๐ŸŽธ (Along with some Taylor Swift and Harry Styles for good measure), even louder cars ๐ŸŽ๏ธ, sneakers/fashion ๐Ÿ‘Ÿ, cooking ๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐Ÿณ, taking care of my pets (A 2 year old British Shorthair named Astro โ˜„๏ธ, a 11 year old Border Terrier named Mars ๐Ÿ›ธ, and a 120l tropical aquarium that tests my patience every day ๐Ÿก), and ignoring TikToks from my girlfriend fiancee ๐Ÿ’“.

For over 10 years Iโ€™ve remained self employed working in numerous alternative fields, from providing creative services to both the music industry and commercial businesses to operating in niche environments catered to software, technology and start-ups. Currently, my forte lies within project management, graphic design and finding new and exciting ways to organically engage with an audience.

I have found myself becoming a very adaptable, hard-working and efficient member of any team Iโ€™m apart of - I tend to do best in positions which are fuelled by passion (either my own or being infected by those around me) as well being dynamic and fast-paced; No two days should be the same [Insert bland clichรฉ quote about insanity from that Einstein fella here].
