First post. Time for an introduction.
Hi everyone,
My name is Ethan. I first caught wind of Steemit last year, but I've finally decided to get involved and see what it has to offer.
In the way of introduction, I'm currently a graduate student who enjoys playing the bass guitar, reading, and occasionally working with video editing. Speaking of which, I'll be sure to post some of my projects on here in later posts. I've been married for a little over a year, and my wife and I enjoy hiking, biking, and being critical of bad movies on Netflix. I've decided to check things out here because I recently met someone who is involved in keeping Steemit running, and I took inspiration.
I'm also a big fan of music, so I might post occasionally about new things I've heard or albums I've picked up, etc.
I'm hoping I'll have something meaningful to add to the community! In the meantime, you can check out where my creative projects live elsewhere online:
I have a personal website at ethandsmith.com where I have pages for all of my video projects, as well as some other various posts. I'm on Twitter as @ethandsmith, but I'm not terribly active. My YouTube channel is where I post my projects and videos of my band's songs. Check it out here: youtube.com/asksmith23
Here's verification!
Welcome to steemit :D
Thanks so much!

Hello Ethan, welcome to Steemit, enjoy :-)
I've enjoyed it so far! Thanks. I'll check out your posts.
Welcome to Steem Community @ethandsmith! As a gentle reminder, please keep your master password safe. The best practise is to use your private posting key to login to Steemit when posting; and the private active key for wallet related transactions.
In the New Steemians project, we help new members of steem by education and resteeeming their articles. Get your articles resteemed too for maximum exposure. You can learn more about it here: https://steemit.com/introduceyourself/@gaman/new-steemians-project-launch
Thanks for letting me know! I've already heard to keep my password safe, so thanks for reinforcing that point. Hopefully I'll get resteemed in the near future, but until then I'll look forward to following you!

Welcome to the Steemit community @ethandsmith!
A couple of tips, ignore the automated bots, they do nothing for you and just earn from your votes.
We love original content! Many other newcomers try to cheat with copy and paste from other websites.
Be patient with building an audience. Steemit is not get rich quick scheme. It is about the people the relationships you build here.
For many new people, the voting and points system seems complicated at first. Here is an excellent post and entertaining video about how it all works.
