Introduce Yourself - Hey I'm Aimee Jay, betcha we'd vibe pretty well!

So first off, I’m super silly, protesting growing up at every chance and I’m still building forts in the living room at age 30. I work in insurance, play a lot of music in front of all kinds of people and make funky things with my hands. Let’s chat about that right now. Check it out!
Hmm... seems the image links are giving me trouble. Check back soon!

Plugs aren’t for everyone but I simply love to make them. I am branching into other jewelry and goods this year which is exciting for me. Sometimes mean customers get me down but all it takes is a digital or real life pat on the back to get back in motion. It doesn’t matter if you have the most amazing product in the world. Someone will be unhappy so take a deep breath! Check out Mantablast on Etsy if you like. I put new things up frequently.

Onto music, I really dig playing and performing. I used to be fixated on aiming for the bigger bucks until one day I saw a man with cerebral palsy jump up, toss his crutches and spring into dance to our music. If was then that I discovered my “why”.

I want to play to make smiles, laughs and energy of the good nature. Here is a track a friend and I wrote about harmful symptoms and effects of anxiety. Although I’m quite the jokester usually, there are some very serious moments of emotion, tears and growth along the way

There are a couple groups I jam with and right now it’s mostly celtic. A fun pub band called Shananigans and a boomy celtic orchestra called The American Rogues. So much fun wherever the night leads…

As for Steemit, I haven’t been here long but here are some of my suggestions for those looking to grow content:

1. Actually read and care about the content
2. Be generous with comments, follows and upvotes for the things you like
3. Make friends and actually care about their success too
4. Grow organically. Don’t invest everything in bots and u4u’s and f4f’s
5. Captivate! Post in depth, great content that helps people. No lazy posts
6. Create a good, readable, notable username. Good = @bigpanda, Not so good = elf45xx1c55b

Thanks for checking out this newbie! I’d love to hear from ya, truly, and expect a reply guys’n gals.
