!Interests and Goals: !My current aim is to become an excellent salesman in property and learn all about the property business. Land registries and title deeds are quickly migrating to the digital economy and increasingly there is a demand for documents to be securely retained on a digital ledger known as the blockchain. I believe that my understanding of digital economics will help the business people with whom I work understand and navigate the new economy and help them fine-tune their future business strategy.
