This article is here to tell you about some (and eventually all) the Spheres I have working in my head, in organization with others, and ones I am not even clear on yet. Oh, and I will get into what the fuck a Sphere even is (to me) 🧑🏽‍🚀

As a passionate content creator, I often find myself reflecting on the terms we use to describe our online platforms. Whether I refer to my space as a "weblog," "blog," or "web log," the essence remains the same—a personal, chronologically updated journal on the internet.

As I navigate my transition from a restaurant professional to a freelancer providing services to both restaurants and tech companies, I find myself reflecting on the journey I've undertaken. The past two years have been a whirlwind of emotions—fun, challenging, and sometimes scary—but each experience has contributed to my growth. I'm currently on a quest to identify where I fit in the tech and startup world, whether as an employee, founder, or freelancer. I've come to believe that the soft skills honed in the restaurant industry offer real value in our increasingly tech-focused environment. To better understand my strengths and areas for improvement, I’ve started a skill assessment, ranking my abilities from novice to amateur. I’m excited to share this journey as a form of expression but also a place to be accountable.
