Week 2 Blog: INDEX winner - designs and inventions

 


        I chose Flash Forest for my index winner. I like the idea of replanting forests and increasing the biodiversity of trees. I will argue a little known fact however. Oceanic plankton is responsible for more than 70% of our oxygen. Plus, oceans produce more oxygen than all trees combined. It would be nice to have a focus on helping preserve this in some ways. There is a chain effect in whales being important for the oceans ecosystem in order to produce food for the plankton and vice versa to feed the whales -. That being said, I still don't want to discount this idea - just want to point out that trees are considered a more minimal percentage when it comes to the amount of forest it take to remove carbon dioxide that will amount that fighting climate change.
I think this could be helpful in helping preserve plant and tree biodiversity and restoring forests from wildfires. Pine beetles, well... have to solve that issue as well first to ensure the trees are sustainable. I still think it is a great idea to combine AI to help with nature. I will never argue that we don't need more trees. Maybe they can also consider it with Denver :)

Week 15 Blog: What I'd like to develop

  What is one thing you'd like to develop in yourself? What I would like to develop in myself is more confidence with my new chosen career. Once I become advanced at my profession, I become really sure of myself and confident in my abilities. I would also like to become a leader in the industry and develop better leadership skills. I'd like to be completely self reliant and in charge of my own life after enhancing my designing skills and salary to a self sufficient point. I can't think of anything else at this moment but I hope to achieve the above in 3-5 years.

Week 14 Blog: Inspiration in Colorado

Image
  Share something that you love about Colorado that inspires your creativity. I think I have to be cliché when I say that I love the outdoors here - it's the best thing about Colorado. However, my favorite part of visiting mountain towns is the art galleries and stores. Better yet, I love when there are seasonal art festivals that all the local artists gather and come together to in order to sell their creative pieces. When you look at different works, it is always inspiring because you see new creative ideas and how they are accomplished, whether it be paintings, photography, jewelry, sculpture, etc.

Week 9 Blog: City of Roses

Image
Describe a time that visited a place for the first time. What do you remember? What were you drawn to? Felt uncertain about? If you could visit again, what would you do while there?  I remember the first time I visited Portland, Oregon and the Oregon Coast.  I was blown away by the beauty of this state as it reminded me of the green misty foliage and trees of Atlanta. I was drawn to the wild roses, misty mornings, green moss, numerous trees, rivers and waterfalls. A bonus was visiting the Pacific Ocean for the first time at Haystack rock. Pictures don't do justice for the rocks enormousness. I have very fond memories of Silver Falls State Park, which was one of the best state parks i had ever been to since you can go behind enormous waterfalls.  In all honesty, I faced some uncertainty in realizing that moving to Oregon would have likely been a better choice and fit for me when I decided to leave Atlanta. This was based on the setting and what the city had to offer. I've learne
