My AI Accelerator Story
Before this Quest, I was in the AI Mastery Program and my life was already deeply immersed in technology, higher education, and entrepreneurship. I was using AI tools, experimenting with automation, and exploring ways to integrate AI into my classroom, leadership, and business initiatives. But if I’m honest, my approach was tactical. I was using AI — not truly thinking in AI. I saw it as a powerful tool, but not yet as a transformative framework.
After taking this Quest I feel…
After taking this Quest, I feel empowered, clearer, and more strategic. AI is no longer something I “try out.” It is now embedded in how I think, plan, teach, create, and lead. I feel like I moved from curiosity to capability — and from capability to confidence.
The reason I enrolled in this Quest…
The reason I enrolled in this Quest was simple: I didn’t want to fall behind. As a faculty leader and technology liaison, I knew AI would reshape higher education, business, and society. I wanted to be ahead of the curve — not reacting to change, but helping shape it.
What I was hoping to achieve/learn was…
I was hoping to understand how to use AI more intelligently and more ethically — not just for productivity, but for innovation. I wanted structured frameworks. I wanted clarity. I wanted to see how AI could become a strategic partner in my work — from curriculum design to research to entrepreneurship.
Reasons why I recommend this Quest is…
I recommend this Quest because it doesn’t just teach tools — it changes your mindset. It moves you from asking, “What can AI do?” to asking, “What can I do with AI as my co-creator?” It provides structure, inspiration, and practical application. Whether you’re an entrepreneur, educator, creator, or leader, this program gives you leverage.
Areas of my life in which I’ve noticed the biggest changes are…
The biggest shifts have been in:
Professional clarity – I now see clearly how to integrate AI into teaching, student engagement, and faculty development.
Creative output – My ability to draft, prototype, brainstorm, and iterate has multiplied.
Strategic thinking – I think in systems now. AI is part of workflows, not an afterthought.
I’ve become more efficient, but more importantly, more imaginative.
My top 3 takeaways or insights during/after finishing this Quest are…
AI is a collaborator, not just a tool. The quality of output depends on the clarity of your thinking.
Prompting is leadership. The way you frame questions determines the quality of results — in AI and in life.
Those who learn to integrate AI thoughtfully will have exponential leverage.
The biggest positive change(s) I’ve noticed are…
The biggest change is confidence. I no longer feel like I’m experimenting in the dark. I feel equipped. I feel proactive. I feel capable of leading others into this new AI-enhanced world with integrity and intention.
Most importantly, I don’t just use AI now. I design with it.
