Living digital,staying human✶
I’m Frances Méndez — cofounder at Camino5. I write about AI, visibility, and how work is changing in real time — published as I learn it.
My whole thing is living in both worlds — balancing the digital and the analog.✶
Two decades at the intersection of brand, digital strategy, and the consumer journey taught me that tools change and people don’t. By day I run Camino5 — the agency named after the five members of my family.
So I build with AI — and I keep the film camera loaded and the rotary phone plugged in. My whole thing is living in both worlds: balancing the digital and the analog.
