About me 🧑🏫
Bienvenidos 👋 I'm Xander Crofts - aka Mr. Optimized. I have background in economics, finance, sales, data analytics, public, and classical education. I'm also a self-taught bilingual, a rental property investor, and now a content creator. I day trade sometimes, read as often as I can, and handwrite profusely ✍️
I gave up on institutional education when I realized I could teach myself faster and more widely using nothing more than books, the internet, and my own systems 🧠📈
I'll help you get organized so that you can learn, earn, and achieve more than you ever thought possible.
