Hello, my name is Corey Costa! I am a student currently studying History and Adolescent Education with aspirations to become a College Professor. Throughout my college career, I have been able to obtain 5 consecutive 4.0 GPA's, graduating with my undergraduate in History with a 4.0 GPA, and I am also an inductee of three Honor Societies (Tau Sigma, Phi Alpha Theta and HonorSociety, a website that contacted me in recognition of my academic achievements). I am currently the Grand Master of Ceremonies at Kappa Sigma Fraternity SUNY Old Westbury Colony Chapter, a position where I educate new pledges about the history of our beloved order. I am now currently enrolled in a MAT program for History/Adolescent Education. To add, I am also published with my Professor Nicole Sieben, where I wrote testimonials in her book titled "Writing Hope Strategies for Writing Success in Secondary Schools" which discusses hope as an action based tool to succeed. Hope can enable students to strive for happiness, peace, love and purpose in their lives. My love of learning brought me into the world of cryptocurrency which has changed my life mentally and financially forever. I hope to share this same knowledge with as many people as I possibly can through the loving art of teaching; the acquisition of knowledge is our biggest strength. I have been actively involved in cryptocurrency for over a year and a half. My passion for cryptocurrency enabled me to become the Executive Writer for a cryptocurrency project known as The Sharder Protocol, A Distributed Cryptocurrency Cross-Chain Data Storage Solution. Let economic freedom ring. Long Live the Blockchain. Long Live Cryptocurrency. Check out my article on CCN (one of the largest cryptocurrency news websites) "A Revolutionary Ecosystem: Sharder-Chain And Bean Cloud: The Back Bone Of The Sharder Ecosystem." Check out my medium page where I write weekly articles about Sharder and cryptocurrency. I now work for the cryptocurrency protocol known as ICON as a former ICON Ambassador and was also a Community Relations Specialist with a company within the ICON Ecosystem known as ICONVIET. I am now part of a company within the ICON Ecosystem known as Ubikcapital!
