Personal Finance Experience
In 2017, Christopher began working as a staff writer for a small financial publication. It quickly grew to become a prominent blog, and he soon became an editor. As the years went on and the company grew, he became the senior editor, leading a team of more than 20 writers.
During his time as an editor, Christopher also moonlighted as a freelance writer for several blogs. Eventually, he found the freedom that role offered impossible to deny. Today, Christopher is a full-time writer focusing on finance and sustainability.
