Hello, I’m Iniobong.
I know, I know. Few people get the pronunciation right. So I let people call me Ini. Kinda like Jon for Jonathan, but if you’re feeling adventurous, it’s pronounced I-ni-o-bong.
I’m a polymath, and while that is a blessing now (I’m not convinced yet), to my teenage self, it was a curse. So much so that settling on a course to study at university was difficult. A year after high school graduation, I chose Statistics.
I began my career teaching Maths in a local high school. I love Maths, but I realized I didn’t want to spend the rest of my life teaching Maths in any high school.
It was rote. And it didn’t challenge me enough. But I didn’t want to go back to school to study Statistics or Maths in an advanced program.
I soon discovered the sea of writing online, and I plunged headlong into it. I’ve worked with amazing clients like Zendesk, Appcues, Tipalti, Plane, Infobrandz, and Applause, to name a few. Heck, I even worked full-time at Animalz for 18 months.
This site is a pivot from the first one I used for six years. It was a personal development blog-cum-freelance writer website. With the first site, I figured I didn’t want to wait for long to start making money online. So I slapped a “hire me” page on it and stopped updating the personal development blog.
I’ve been writing online for a decade, and I’ve written everything from blog posts to infographic scripts. But I’m not writing “everything” anymore.
I now write case studies and research(data?) reports.
I still write blog posts I ideate to support either type of content whenever necessary, but that’s it.
