First used in the early 1960s, the term 'cyborg' was coined to refer to beings combining both organic and mechanical aspects to bridge the gap between mind and matter. After earning a degree from the University of Colorado in 2015 with a combination of an English major and Technology, Arts, and Media minor in addition to being certified in 2026 on the latest developments in content, SEO, AEO, & GEO, I too am able to offer a hybridized cyborg skill set that ranges from communication and writing all the way to web design and search optimization. Not only able to articulate complex concepts in easy to understand terms for both customers and crawlers, my background in computer sciences and technology means I can also just as easily roll up my sleeves and get under the hood of digital production and technical SEO, making me a spark plug for the hundreds of websites and companies that crop up online each day with hopes of claiming position zero in the ever-evolving world of Google search and AI.
