How has technology changed your job?

How has technology changed my job?
It expanded it. It sharpened it. It gave me a louder voice, a wider reach, and more tools to do the work that matters to me.

I’m a content creator, a model, a writer, and a voice for people who rarely feel seen. I run a blog, I post regularly, I connect with followers every day. I speak to people who feel different, judged, lonely, or unseen—and I speak for them, too. I share thoughts, stories, photos, and truth. That’s not an algorithm. That’s a job. One I care about deeply.

Technology has made parts of that easier—editing, publishing, reaching across the world in seconds. But it hasn’t made it effortless. Every word, every image, every message takes time, intention, and heart. That’s what I put into this. That’s what my followers feel. And that’s what I’m proud of.

Some people still ask if someone like me should even be doing this. I think that answers itself, doesn’t it?

Technology didn’t give me a purpose. I brought my own. It just gave me more powerful ways to live it out.
