My name is Chandler and I’ve been writing a blog since 2006. In college, I studied engineering, but during my second year, I discovered a passion for performance marketing. Following my heart, I pursued this field even though it meant taking a pay cut initially. However, I found that the fulfillment I gained from doing what I love was well worth it.
There is a new feature on this blog where you can Chat with what I have written over the past 15 years, using generative AI. The chatbox is at the bottom right-hand corner. The AI agent is trained using all the published posts on this blog. More about it here.
Currently, I’m working as a Vice President, Global B2B Media Operation Lead at EssenceMediacom, which is part of GroupM, WPP. We’re a data and measurement-driven agency that helps clients stay ahead in marketing.
As part of lifelong learning, I recently completed
The Google Cybersecurity professional certificate on Coursera. My badge is here.
After earning this certificate, I completed Google IT Automation with Python too. The badge is here.
In addition to my full-time job, I also write books about team management, and blogging about leadership, and expat life in the US. Since moving to the United States, I started a group called “Asian Expats in the US” to provide tips for those who have recently moved or are planning to move here.
