🐾Empowering Animals through AI: My Journey from Cybersecurity to Compassion

From Suppressed Passion to Brave Pivot

When I first walked into the tech world, it wasn’t because I dreamed in code or longed to debug servers. It was because I felt like my real dream—working with animals—was out of reach. As a single mom, with bills to pay and a little boy depending on me, I told myself the world of animal science was no longer mine to pursue. So, I turned to something practical: tech.

I dove headfirst into HTML, CSS, and eventually cybersecurity. It was challenging and exciting at times, but something always felt a little... off. I started a website, wrote blogs, tried to build projects—but deep down, I was forcing it. The spark just wasn’t there.

Then one day, while doom-scrolling through Instagram reels and TikTok (as one does), I saw creators doing these incredible things for animals—rescue work, advocacy, tech innovations in shelters—and something in me cracked wide open. That old, quiet longing I had buried—the one that whispered this is what you were meant to do—came rushing back. And this time, I decided not to shove it down.

Why now? Because everything is hard to break into these days. Even customer service roles are slamming doors shut, despite 11 years of experience. So, if I’m going to fight to be seen, I want it to be for something that sets my soul on fire.

The Pivot Point: Combining Passions - Animals and Technology

I've always had a passion for animals and technology, but recently I decided not to put my passion for animals on the back burner for technology; instead, I wanted to combine them.

As I navigated through the jungle of tech certifications and resources, one thing became crystal clear: my heart was more into purring than programming. Yep, animal welfare had me hooked!

I started daydreaming about how technology could give rescue cats the VIP treatment they deserve.

Picture this: an app that acts like a matchmaker between foster families and top-notch vet services. Talk about a tech-meow-lution! Each new idea was like catnip to my enthusiasm, making me realize my tech journey wasn't just about ones and zeros, but about making the world a better place for our furry friends.

Innovative AI Solutions for Animal Welfare

While everyone’s busy yakking about AI solving human problems, they’re totally missing the purr-spective of our four-legged pals. Imagine the game-changer if AI could:

• Sniff out health issues in pets by decoding their quirky behaviors, saving up to 30% on vet visits with early interventions. Less time at the vet means more time for belly rubs!

• Turn shelters into matchmaking maestros, boosting adoption success by over 40%. More happy tails, fewer lonely hearts!

• Craft custom fun gadgets tailored to each animal's unique quirks, turning every day into a play date.

This tech-for-tails approach is the cat's pajamas, proving that technology can truly be a force for good.

What This Means for Becca Creates

As I weave this new direction into my work, the beloved cozy-tech-cat vibe isn’t going anywhere. Who can resist the allure of snuggling up with technology? However, brace yourselves for a noticeable twist in the content I share.

Say goodbye to the days of cybersecurity tutorials and firewall tips. Now, the spotlight is on how artificial intelligence can become the fairy godmother for animals and their human sidekicks.

This change opens a treasure chest of opportunities, inviting a lively community of animal lovers, tech geeks, and independent creators. Upcoming topics might dive into how AI can revolutionize animal care, offer tips for fostering our furry friends in need, or provide hilarious insights into the peculiar antics of our pets.
