A new window will popup and you can start typing. We suggest adding the following information:

Here’s an example of a good, concise, member introduction:
Hi, I’m Craig Grella, member #22. I live in Pittsburgh, PA and I am the Fleet Society’s web admin. When I first became a Fleet Society member, I knew nothing about sunken ships, recovered treasure, or numismatics. I didn’t even know what the word “numismatics” meant. After designing the first Fleet Society Website back in 2015 I started learning more about the 1715 Fleet and its history, and through the years have read many books and articles about the Fleet and its sinking. Now, I consider myself a Fleet enthusiast, and enjoy reading and editing many of the articles and pages on this site!

My day job is creating marketing strategy for SaaS companies, and on the site I created a community and course teaching first time candidates how to run successful campaigns for local elected office. Most times, you can find me here on the Fleet Society website or at CampaignPlanner.org.
