By the end\, you’ll know exactly what’s broken and how to rebuild it yourself using modern AI website-building tools\, no code and no developer required. \nEvent Details\nDate: October 28th\, 2026 \nTime: 11:00am-12:30pm\nLocation: Launch SA\, 600 Soledad st\, San Antonio TX 78205 \nFree 3hr Parking \nSpeaker Bio: Cynthia Marshall is a Digital Business Architect based in San Antonio\, helping small business owners build websites that actually drive results\, not just look good. Before founding her own practice\, she spent over 20 years in financial services\, HR consulting\, and EdTech partnerships\, work that taught her how to diagnose what’s actually broken in a business and fix it. Today she combines AI-powered website audits with hands-on\, no-code rebuilds\, so business owners can finally get out of expensive developer relationships and take control of their own digital presence. She’s also the founder of Freedom After 40\, a coaching platform helping women over 40 build lives of purpose and freedom on their own terms. Cynthia holds an Executive MBA from UTSA.
