items Here are some courses I have taken over the years. Most of them have to do with Art (as that's what I love), Marketing/Social Media and with AI as i'm fascinated with it and let's face it, if you don't keep up with it you will be left behind. I don't think AI is going to take over anything but it has definitely made my life a little easier in my work and side hussles.
