It’s finally 2020! Yay! So when I think of 2019 for me, what do I think of? I realize that it has already been about a year of me developing Alexa skills and publishing YouTube videos and blog posts. To me, it feels like I was developing my first Alexa skill, Kids Advice, just a few months ago! I have been thinking about my journey with Alexa in 2019, and I feel proud of what I have accomplished.

I have developed 4 Alexa skills, (Kids Advice, Meal Buddy, Wheel of Fun, STEM Party). I have nearly completed my 5th Alexa skill Water Tracker. I have been interviewed 4 times and was featured on Voicebot.ai. I have also been to a hackathon and an Alexa Meetup. I have created 15+ blog posts about Alexa and several videos explaining Alexa concepts. Last but certainly not least, I get to speak at Project Voice in less than 2 weeks!

I’ve been pondering about what I plan to do in 2020, and here’s what my goals are. I want to develop more Alexa skills. I’d like to create more blog posts and videos. I would like to go to a few more conferences and someday maybe even start my own podcast! Definitely more hackathons and Meetups too!

So, these are my thoughts on the past year and the coming year! I’d love to know yours!
