My short bio:
Hi Everyone! Welcome to my personal blog. My name is Gaby Montero and I'm 22 years old. I was born and raised in Quito/Ecuador, a beautiful city in the middle of the Andes Mountains. I learned how to speak English when I was four, and went to "Academia Cotopaxi", an American High school.
When I turned 17 I made the decision to move to the states to attend the University of Notre Dame. Moving away from my home country was a really tough decision, but ND's school of business is currently ranked the #1 in the nation and I wanted to receive an excellent education, so I was sold pretty easily.
During my Junior year in school, I started dating my now fiance Emerson Spartz. He is the webmaster of Mugglenet.com, the #1 Harry Potter site of the internet. If you want to read more about him, click here, and if you want to read about our love story, click here.
In May of 2009, I graduated from the Mendoza School of Business with major in Management Consulting, and a minor in International Business. I currently live in South Bend, Indiana (the same city Notre Dame is located at) with Emerson and his brother Dylan. We're planning on moving to Chicago next year, but we haven't made any final decisions yet.
The internet is my life, and I absolutely love it. I create websites with Emerson for a living. It is the best job in the world and I couldn't be happier about it. You may have heard of some of our sites...
GivesMeHope.com - Like FML, but for optimists
LoveGivesMeHope.com - Stories that make you go 'AWW!'
SavesWatts.com (formerly Givoogle) - Use Google to save energy
Omg-Facts.com - The official website of the #1 fact source on Twitter
Our websites receive over 4.5 million visitors each month and continue to grow every single day! Emerson and I have plans for many more sites, but there's only so much time in the day!
I'm also the host of the OMG-Facts youtube channel. We post video facts weekly, so if you have a minute you should subscribe and check it out here: omgfactsofficial.
DailyCute.net (my personal blog) originally began as a site where I would daily pictures of cute animals, but it has now evolved into my personal blog. I try to update my friends (and online friends) as often as I can through this blog. To read more about DC's history, click here.
So that's a little about me! Since I spend all day on my computer I'm part of a lot of online communities. Want to follow me? The links are at the top of the page :D!
