Hi everyone,
I'm Katie, well to tell a lil about me, I'm a 39 year old single mother of 5 very beautiful teenaged girls. We are in the process of starting over which is very challenging. I have been trying to change careers but some of my past experience has been warehouse unloading and loading inventory. I've been Forklift certified for 3 years. I've tried cleaning vacation rental property, which I was spending more on gas than I was making. I thought of and played a lul on my own business but I have been scared of failure. I have had this account and came across a email yesterday and here we are.
I'm open to see where this takes me......

Hey Andrea, I'm Al Nahian and I work in the field of web development. I'm a Full Stack PHP, Laravel, and Vue developer from Bangladesh.
As I'm very new to Upwork (my journey started yesterday, it's not even 24 hours yet), I'm hoping to learn the best practices, Upwork standards, how to win clients and other related interesting knowledge from other members.
The entire Laravel Community inspires me a lot about my work. But if I want to be more specific, there's a senior programmer I know who inspires and motivates me so much when needed. But the list goes on, and there are many energetic people that inspire me actually.
If you ask me about my immediate goal, then it is to be successful with Upwork! Haha, and that's why I'm here. Wish me luck!

Hi everyone!! My name is Alicia and I am a bookkeeper with over 15 years experience in finance; located in Chili, New York. Although I signed up with Upwork years ago, this is the first time I am trying to use it. I'm excited to learn how other small businesss bring on new clients and advertise themselves. I worked in large corporations mainly in the Accounts Receivable department for over 10 years before working at Intuit QuickBooks as a live bookkeeper. Mainly working behind the scenes gave me the confidence to start my own bookkeeping company. Now to bring on the work!! That's the hardest part!! I'm inspired by all the small business owners I've met! Seeing all their hard work pay off when their business grows is amazing to me!!
Glad to meet everyone on here and hoping we can all assist and inspire ach other!

Hello, everyone!
I am a journalist, copywriter, dramaturge, events scriptwriter, zerocode developer, social media marketing specialist and a poet. At the moment packing my bags and looking forward to changing my life in Israel together with my fiance. Obviously striving for a freelance job connected with writing, teaching or creating web products with zero code platforms. I am forever inspired by Steve Jobs as a visioner, creator and entrepreneur, also by some great writers like Ernest Hemingway and some of my courageous friends give me huge inspiration. I would like to find allies here, maybe, a permanent job, a team and an opportunity to grow as a professional.
Hoping to build new collaborations and develop strong business connections here!
