Lynda is a phenomenal publicist taking the reins of Hack Your Own PR in Singapore and I can’t wait for you all to learn more about her and the amazing guests she’ll have on the program.  Don’t tune out though - this series is great for listeners everywhere - not just in Singapore!  Lynda’s very first guest is Christian Barker - and I am nearly out of breath listing his wealth of experience. Christian is the Editor in Chief of the luxury lifestyle magazine Boulevard. Christian is an editor and journalist extraordinaire who has more than 20 years of experience, including writing for the likes of Forbes Asia, Travel+Leisure, Financial Times and CNBC to name a few.  Christian also established and edited the luxury lifestyle magazine ‘Billionaire’ (https://www.bllnr.com/), launched AugustMan in Singapore, and was the founding editor-in-chief of The Rake magazine. In this chat, you’ll hear how Christian started his career in the record industry due to a love of electronic dance music (who hasn't been through this phase!) but always intended to work in the media.  You’ll also learn how aspirations of being a cartoonist as a kid have been fulfilled by working as an editor!  Find Christian Barker online https://cbbarker.com/  https://www.instagram.com/christianbbarker/  Find Lynda Williams online https://www.hackyourownpr.sg/  https://www.instagram.com/hackyourownpr.sg/
