Why a website?
I look at this as a digital medium to function as a creative outlet for me. I am hoping over time to develop my writing and coding while simultaneously maintaining a proficiency on digital analytic tools.
Lots of topics will be on display. Affiliate links and ads will be part of the experience, but a goal is to then turn around and teach you about them! Right now there is no MCU-like grand plan, we’re just taking this one day at a time.
