It was a brisk February day at Red Rock Canyon when I recorded a two‑minute video reflecting on my journey in the AI Apprentice program. Behind me, jagged peaks framed the scene—an apt metaphor for the challenges I’ve tackled and the heights I’m aiming for

From the very beginning, I embraced the program’s hands‑on approach to learning. In candid videos filmed in coffee shops and around dinner tables, I talked about how I never imagined I’d be running digital ad campaigns or using AI tools to automate workflows. At first, I just wanted to learn a skill. But after a few weeks, I realized I could use AI to build real campaigns for local businesses—and get paid for it.
This realization changed everything. Some of my favorite memories are of working from my laptop on the road. We’d be driving to a client meeting and I’d be optimizing a Facebook campaign from the passenger seat. Those moments showed me that you don’t need an office to get great results—just good Wi‑Fi and the right systems.
The program also provided a sense of community. Whether we were hiking a mountain or brainstorming ad copy, there was always someone to bounce ideas off. We push each other, we laugh together, and we learn together. It feels like a family.
Standing at the summit in that video, I talked about how my new skills have given me both confidence and purpose. If you’re a young adult wondering what’s next, I hope my story shows that you can learn high‑value skills, serve real clients, and have fun doing it. I’m excited to keep sharing these experiences as I continue to grow.
