RE: Hi Steemians, I'm Elizabeth! :)
Good morning @elizabeth6! Catching up on my profile's activity, I found you had recently started following my posts. So, in looking at your profile, it was nice to find your introductory post. Welcome to our Steem Community!
In reading about you, it stands out to me you are just beginning your career and have already identified blockchain technology as something you would like to know more about,
"... fascinated by disruptive technologies like blockchain and have explored this interest as a financial technology researcher ..."
Disruptive indeed. Educated and working the first 20 years of my life as an engineer, I am at the opposite end of my career, closing it out working as a Business Systems Analyst. You may find some interest in reading my IIBA Conference 2017 post about this amazing international conference of analysts and their perspective on the future.
Reference to blockchain technology as disruptive, particularly when combined with AI, featured prominently ...
Relatively new to our Steem Community myself, I have a favor to ask @elizabeth6. As time permits, I would greatly appreciate learning what it was in my posts and / or comments which both caught your eye and then prompted you to follow me. Thanks.
Upvoted 100% and now following you! Looking forward to "seeing through your eyes" what you are learning about this fascinating technology in its very early stages of transforming our world. As well as anything else you may wish to share "from the heart" ... 😊 👍

P.S. One of my first "encounters" in this "virtual ecosystem" was with @crypto.talk, the original developer of Partiko. He is featured in the "Two Thumbs Up" section of my Month 1 Update post. Great guy!
[Note: I think he lives somewhere around you there in the Bay area, so perhaps you will run into each other sometime ... 😊]
Hi @roleerob, thank you so much for your introduction and words of encouragement! To answer your question, it was the passion and level of detail in your posts that caught me eye. :)
It's funny that you should mention @crypto.talk, because I actually had the pleasure of meeting him recently. From my experience with him, your Month 1 Update post hit the nail on the head—@crypto.talk's "total commitment to the best possible user experience" is truly incredible, and the dedication of @Partiko's engineers is what makes @Partiko the best mobile Steem app!
Thank you again for your post, and I look forward to reading more of your content! :)

Thank you for the investment of your time in your response @elizabeth6 and the kind words of encouragement in return. Frankly, the number one issue I face in my involvement "in here" is my time. Words like this make it seem worthwhile ...
And, wow, you've met @crypto.talk? That sounds great. As mentioned in that post, not sure what the chances are I will ever meet him, but I'm confident we'd get along. "Kindred spirits" I think ...
Oh, yes, and as for,
Yep, got me! Guilty!! 😊 👍
