You do not have to do one, you can simply upload a profile picture if you wish, however a video introduction is more personal and fun!

With exception to professional performing artists, oftentimes people sacrifice their talents and passions as they embark on their professional career paths. There are many educators, doctors, and lawyers who say, “when I was younger I played the piano’ or ‘once wrote poetry’ but have given it up because it was just a childhood passion. They feel as if their talents and passions had nothing to do with their professional development, or current careers. What they fail to realize is when they previously engaged in their passions they were happy. Now as a professional, although they are financially independent, there is a void in their lives. I believe our passions and talents shape and define who we are as people, and when we give up on them, we give up on ourselves. True happiness comes from within our own hearts and minds. Creativity is more than a pastime or a hobby; it is a way of life and path to success. My goal is to show people that by embracing their creative talents and passions, whatever they may be, they can maintain their happiness and excel in the professions they choose at the same time. I encourage everybody to use CratenFire.com to get back on their paths and support others through their journeys. Use me as your platform to your audience of the world. Don't keep the world waiting any longer... showcase your talents and support others as they get back on their path to happiness! Kenyatta Craten
