New Here, Sink or Start Living

Hello, Hola, Hi!

My name is Monica.

I am an entrepreneur and a digital storyteller. I am currently going through a significant life change. I recently left my job and decided to fully commit to building a life that aligns with who I am and where I am going, so this is a sink-or-swim chapter for me.

My relationship with AI is one of curiosity, hands-on work, and learning as I go. I have been using tools like ChatGPT in practical ways, but I still see myself as a motivated novice who wants to understand AI deeply and responsibly, not just use it, but walk with it. One thing I would really like AI to assist me with is clarity and productivity, especially turning ideas into structured action during change periods. What led me here is the desire to be with people who are learning, experimenting, and not pretending to be experts. I want community, shared momentum, and conversations that feel real.

Fun fact: I love photography, travel, and storytelling, and I believe life gives you breadcrumbs when you are brave enough to follow them. If anyone here is also newish to AI and thinks that this journey is better done with friends, especially if you are local to North Texas (McKinney, Allen, Frisco, Plano area), I would love to know I am not alone in this season.

Grateful to be here and excited to learn alongside you all 🌱

Let's make 2026 the year we stop waiting and start building ✨
