  • Mic: Samson Q2U
  • Boom: Elgato LP Boom Arm Pro

Accessories:

The last thing I’ve added to my setup:

Mac Mini M4. Decided to upgrade from the Mac Mini M1 for speed and space.

My biggest learning:

You're never too old to create something new.

Why I started:

It's in my DNA! Always enjoyed creating something from nothing, sharing thru visuals (especially video), helping others see what they can do with their gifts too.
