Hello Steemians and Steemers! Lydia, aka @alphasteem, suggested that I do an intro video on DTube. So here we go!
First a bit about me, I do video production for a living. A little over 8 years ago I quit my job as a Recruiter/Head Hunter to pursue my hobby/passion for video production as my career. In 2013 I started a cooking show on Youtube which combined my love of video production with cooking and baking! I enjoy movies, TV, board games, video games, playing basketball, volleyball, rock climbing, hiking, gardening, cooking and baking, dancing, and a whole lot more. I got into cryptocurrency investing in late December, and heard about Steemit from people in a forum that I belong to. So I joined Steemit in January, mainly to be able to upvote and comment on their posts. Since then I decided, hey I have content that I can contribute to Steemit as well, and maybe even earn a little bit extra money too while I am at it.
I love this social media platform, it is amazing! One thing I have noticed in my 5 or 6 months of being here is that everyone seems to be super friendly and nice! I get lots of mean comments on my Youtube channel, haha, mostly nice comments, but still lots of mean ones. But here people are friendly, kind, and helpful. It makes sense, by working together we can make this the best social media platform around!
What will you find on my blog? You will find lots of cooking and baking related content, excerpts from a dating book that I wrote. I plan to release one new chapter every few days, until the whole book is completed. Of course you could always buy the book on Amazon if you wanted. haha I will also post other things, like in the past I have posted my cryptocurrency videos that I made, gardening videos, etc. Mainly for now they will be food and dating related probably. haha It has been a fun journey here so far, I look forward to continuing my journey with you all.
Thank you so much for stopping by! I look forward to hearing from you!
Thanks!
Matt (aka mrchef111)

greetings, mrchef
Be very welcome to steemit social network. I've been here since February of this year and I'm really enjoying. I participate here actively every day. Here, we can learn a lot by reading other people's posts about content that interest us and we can post our own content, helping people within our areas of expertise, training our writing, making a kind of "therapy" because, writing helps us to reflect on our knowledge and we will be slightly paid for it. I hope you enjoy.
My main tip is: before you begin to post your content, read the posts by teaching staff how to use this network, about how to write good text, how are the coins sbd, steem and steem power, how to advertise your text using the discord by example, votes issues and other things.
Other than that, we are always available. If you have any questions, go ahead.
Good afternoon!!!! Welcome!!
Thank you for reaching out and thank you for all the tips! :) Will definitely ask questions when I have them.
Really beautiful .. amazing photos
steemit is now the place of creativity
Thanks for sharing..
Thank you very much! I agree Steemit is an awesome place for sharing creativity! You are very welcome!

Well thank you!! I am glad you like it. Pastries are yummy!! :) I wish I spoke Spanish. lol I had to use Google Translate.
Hey you are doing great. I have some similar story too. But anyways, I always wanted to create videos, it would be great if you could post a tutorial about producing videos...
Hello! Thank you! That is a great idea! :) I could do a whole series of posts on that. haha I have been doing video production as my career for over 8 years, and then as a hobby for many many years before that. Lots of knowledge I could share. :)
Looking forward to seeing some more cooking video. I love making them too but I am a bit short in time these days. What's your favorite board game? It a while since we played but I love Twilight Imperium. Have a nice day ;)
Thank you Amy! Yeah I wish I had more time as well! lol I haven't played Twilight Imperium before, sounds cool. I don't have only one favorite. But here are some of my favorites, Lords of Water Deep, Splendor, 7 Wonders, Five Tribes, King of Tokyo, Settlers of Catan, to name a few. :)
Ohh love Catan too. Haven't heard of the others. Will check them out. Thanks
You are very welcome! :) Yeah Catan is awesome! haha

Awesome, I just commented on your introduction post. Welcome to Steemit! :)
i want to earn by steemit so what to do please sir tell me where i can start from?
My advice would be to pick a couple of topics that interest you or that you are passionate about and start posting about them. :) Whether you do videos, or articles, or video game reviews, or movie reviews, or life topics, whatever the case just start posting. :) and make sure to follow others that post in your same interest categories. :)
thanks for your advice i will keep in mind that you shared and try to do my research for posting
thanks sir..
You are very welcome! :)
Hello man
Hello! :)
different information and career , and you have a positive energy , tahks. interesting man... welcome ... see you next video...
Well thank you! I really appreciate it. Yeah I have had a pretty fun career so far. :)
I feel like I read this article somewhere else.
Interesting while it is possible there is someone else out there with a similar story to mine, I highly doubt it. haha Unless you read my post I made about 4 months ago? This is complete original content. Owned and created by me.
This was my non video introduction post, maybe this is what you read?
https://steemit.com/introduceyourself/@mrchef111/hello-videomaker-and-chef-fairly-new-here
welcome
Thanks! :)
Great beginning keep it up
Thank you!! I took a look at your profile. I love the idea of motivational topics!
thank you very much
You are very welcome!
thanks
Just like you, I'm new to steemit. I hope we're doing great!
Thank you! I am not brand new, I have been on it for about 5 months or so, but this is the first time doing an introduction on DTube. From time to time when you come up with something new, it is a good idea to post in the Introduceyourself section. My very first post was like 1 short paragraph, wasn't really interesting at all. haha. This time I felt like I had more to offer.
It would be great to see such a professional chef here.
Welcome
Well thank you so much I really appreciate it! :)
Feliz Blogging
Thank you! :)
Welcome to Steemit! I followed you, let's increase the power of Steemit together! I hope you follow me. I'm always glad to have a new community with good people! ;)

Thank you!
You are welcome!

Thank you!! :) You too!
welcome to Steemit
Thank you!
welcome, very successful ... I loved your presentation
Well thank you very much I am glad you liked it! :)
1200% I am also a creator of content on multiple platforms and yeah people can be mean. Here people are generally awesome! So much so I'm changing my focus to DTube and Steemit mainly. PS Im running a competition for DTube creators where im giving away free Animations to creators. Check out my channel for more info its a very recent video. I look forward to seeing your cooking videos on DTube. I have subscribed :)
Thank you! While people can be mean and nasty on YouTube, and it got to me at first haha, but then I realized at least on YouTube any like or dislike or positive or negative comment still helps the video show up higher in rankings. So when I realized that I just was like who cares. haha. I will definitely check it out and thank you!
I will be sure to watch some of your cooking shows. I am a gardener myself and maybe I can pick up some tip s from you . Im still trying to figure out how to grow fist size tomatoes. And I love making salsa. Thanks for the post today.
Awesome thank you! Funny you mention gardening, my next post I have will be an update on my garden! :) I have a small patio here at my townhome where I garden. Everything in pots! Unfortunately with my potted tomatoes here in AZ I can only grow smaller varieties. Every time I try growing larger varieties I always get tons of tomatoes, but they normally get Blossom end rot before ripe. Too bad I don't really like fried green tomatoes! haha But my grape tomatoes and cherry tomatoes do surprisingly well! :) I love making salsa too! and guacamole!
I live in Louisiana, but Im visiting Tucson. Rather Oro Valley. It's good to meet you here on Steemit and I will follow you too. If you will put Epson Salts in the hole before you plant the tomato, this will help greatly with blossom end rot and also feed the plant. Did you know that you can water tomatoes too much? Yes, even in the desert you can give them too much water.
Very cool! Great to meet you too! Yeah I used Epson salts on them. My current tomatoes are totally fine, but they are the small variety. Yep I did know that. :) I always check my plants first before watering, my sticking my finger in the ground to check out damp it is. haha :)
Where in Arizona do you live?
I am in the Phoenix area.
My home is in Shreveport, La, but Im visiting my daughter who lives in Oro Valley/Tucson. Since you live in the Phoenix area, do you know Brandon Frye from Steemit?.He lives there.
