I became an influencer by accident. Here’s what they don’t tell you about this job
I became an influencer when I was a biomedical engineer in a PhD program back in 2020 and there has been so much that I have learned in this industry that I wish someone had told me. In this video, I discuss dating, parasocial relationships, meeting your audience in real life, and so many other nuances of being a full-time creator. I hope this info can be helpful to you, especially if you're considering doing this as your full-time career. #influencerlife #contentcreatortips #losangelesinfluncer
