Hi All,

I'm Troy, a Finance professional and Excel enthusiast of 20 plus years in the auto industry in Michigan.

I joined Upwork to take charge of how and when I work, so I intend to study what is and isn't effective for others toward that goal.

I'm inspired by anyone who can be their own boss, so I think I stumbled onto the right site!

Hi Troy

I agree with you that Upwork is the best way to achieve this. I hope that very soon we will be our own bosses.

Hey Upworkers,

I have been a freelance content writer crafting quality blog posts for almost three years for local clients (some were international, but the work was ghostwritten and outsourced from local clients).

I am from Pakistan and am learning a lot of things via two platforms, especially:

From Upwork (my all-time go-to place when I want to get inspiration for my new blog topic from my niche) 

Another is LinkedIn (Where I often roam around to find like-minded people from my niche and learn new trends from the experience of various professionals to get knowledge about practical aspects of my niche.)

I am inspired by Neil Patel, Alex Cattoni, Khalil Ullah Khan, Brian Dean, and many more.

Hi Everyone,

My name is Sarannya Mohanan and currently based in India. My Bachelor's in Business Administration was completed in 2006, and now I am currenlty pursuing a certificate course in using AI in business growth. My area of expertise would be in administration (everything from VA to Operations ), and so I am looking for jobs online where I can offer my services to clients who require them.

From the community here, I would love to have discussions and attain knowledge from experts in the field, to know the latest tool in the kit, ways to deal with difficult clients and learn from their (expert's) experience. 

If asked who inspires me, I would say Nick Vujicic does, I am truly inspired by his resilience and positivity in the midst of his enormous physical and emotional challenges.

If he did all what he does with the limitations he has, what can be achieved if we overcome our limitations?

Looking forward to making new connections and getting to know you 

Sharan
