Unbelievably kind, devilishly handsome, incredibly clever, a beacon of support from CluCoin’s conception—these are only a few ways to describe our newest man in charge, Pinckard, who recently honored CluCoin with his marketing expertise. As our new Chief Marketing Officer, Pinckard has set his sights on the future and intends to bring a fresh new face to CLU’s marketing campaign.

As Pinckard is a super close, *personal* friend of mine and very much single (I made sure to ask him several times), I considered this exclusive interview a service to women and men everywhere. 
 
**Me: How did you come up with the name “Pinckard”?**
 
***Pinckard, striking looks already beguiling the staff, readies his answer:*** *The name “Pinckard” is actually my family name. My first name is Christian, and I’ve always been a fan of the color pink, so I’ve adopted the name “Pinckard” or “Pinck.” I’ll usually have a pink color scheme mixed in somewhere as well to go with my name.*
 
A man who wears pink? Call me branded and sold already. It’s a color I would paint the world in, and I imagine Pinckard would help me do it.
 
**Me: Why did you choose to work for CLU?**
 
***Pinckard:*** *I chose to work for CLU because CLU feels like home. I’ve been a member of the CLUmmunity since before CLU launched on the Binance chain, and I’ve been a fan of the Wolf Pack for a long time! I went from a content creator to an Ambassador, then to a moderator, and now the Chief Marketing Officer. It’s been an incredible journey, and it truly feels like it’s just begun.*

What Pinckard also fails to mention here was that his hilarious emote use in [CLU Discord](https://discord.gg/clu) chat and silly personality were one of the reasons I honed on him like a woman on a mission. For a long time, his profile picture featured popcorn, and being labeled a “snack” has never been more appropriate.
 
**Me: Explain your job, but poorly.**
 
***Pinckard:*** *At CLU, I have my thumb on the pulse of what makes people want to buy things.*
 
I, too, have no idea what that means, folks. But isn’t he adorable? 
 
**Me: What’s the best thing CLU-related you’ve worked on?**
 
***Pinckard:*** *The best thing I’ve worked on at CLU has to be their [Goobers project](https://www.goobers.net/). I’ve met so many incredible and likeminded folks, who not only want to see the community succeed but also want to make the world a better place together.*

**Me: How do you think CLU will make a difference and why?**
 
***Pinckard:*** *I believe that CLU is already making a difference in many lives, and here’s why: CLU has donated over $200k to charity, and that money has tremendous impact across the board. CLU makes a difference every day to the folks in our community that count on us to deliver our A-game. Whether it’s our community events or a friendly chat session in our servers, we are making a difference and I can guarantee that much.*
 
**Me: If you were given the choice to either voluntarily join a dance mob or swim in shark infested waters, how long do you think it’d take to get eaten by a shark?** 
 
This was by far my most important question yet.
 
***Pinckard:*** *I actually love sharks and the water. If my college studies serve me right, a shark won’t (or shouldn’t) attack unless provoked or given a reason to. I’m pretty good about accidentally hurting myself though, so if blood was somehow drawn, it’d probably take approximately 10 minutes for a shark to find me and make sure I’m okay.*
 
Aka, Pinckard is definitely going to be eaten by a shark quickly. But hey, at least it’d be by something he loves.
 
**Me: On a scale of 1-10, how cryptocurrency savvy are you?**
 
***Pinckard:*** *I’m a definite 9. I’ve been around the space since it first gained popularity around late 2010. Of course, back then, Bitcoin was only around 8 cents a pop. Folks were very excited about what crypto could become. Now that crypto has gained overall acceptance, I’m very happy that I joined the space to begin with, and even more proud that I believed in the technology.*
 
**Me: Tell us two lies and a truth, because here at CluCoin, we like to bring mystery and excitement.**
 
***Pinckard:*** *I am younger than 25. I have blue eyes. I have four cats and a dog.*
 
Bet you won’t guess what the truth is. Bet. 
 
Well, there you have it. All the necessary, deep-diving interview questions you’ve been desperate to know about our newest addition to the CLU board. I know I was especially intrigued by his ability to lure sharks to his side in ten minutes, tops. Color me impressed by his dedication to the slippery, ocean-dwelling creatures.
 
Pinckard may be the newest face to our CluCoin board, but he fits in perfectly with some of the greatest minds and kindest hearts in the crypto space. With our growing community and staff, it’s our intention to take the crypto world by storm. Slowly, items along our roadmap are being knocked out, and with Pinkcard’s help, every new development will reach the wider community.
