Blog

My Blog about stuff – family, sports, travel, and cooking.

My blog is almost like my journal. I keep track of my kids’ various activities, from Taekwondo to Soccer to Band. I also spend time writing about our various travels, whether to family or one of the many soccer events we attend. You might also find a good recipe, or two!

The Day I Finally Embraced AI (And Why I’m Glad I Did)

Embrace AI! That’s right. I said what I said! I am currently a product marketer for the company I work for, focusing on a few plugin offerings. When I first moved into marketing, my job was fairly straightforward. I took older content, such as blog posts, and refreshed them. I updated the writing…

This is a take on my mom’s chicken enchilada recipe. I loved this meal growing up. But it’s very time-consuming to make the enchiladas separately. Plus, in our old house, we didn’t have the kitchen counter space. So, I turned her same recipe into a casserole. It’s quick…
