I help organize, systematize, and optimize the world's forever students 🖊️ 〰️〰️〰️ 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 like to juggle 🤹‍♂️ And I like helping others to do the same. I use a combination of Notion + Boox (the Note Max in my case) to stay on top of it all, and I make videos about how I do so. Let's get you hyper organized - so that you may learn, earn, and achieve more widely and abundantly than ever before. Optimized 🎯 Welcome to the club ✌️
