50,000 over on YT ✔️📈🚀

This milestone hits extra for me. 🙏🏻

YT has been a passion of mine since I started making personal content and I’ve always made it a point to create content MY WAY on that platform.

No viral longform videos, no shorts that popped off or went crazy for millions of views.

Just a lot of hard work, consistency and a lot of love for the game.

Halfway to the goal tho, I want that 100k plaque next.

Tap in if you haven’t yet & keep pushin’. 🤘🏻🚀

The Lab 1.0 🧪

This space served so many memories for me as a creator.

- 200+ pieces of content created
- Endless early mornings/late nights
- 150,000+ followers gained across socials
- Countless discord calls
- Found my voice as a creative

One last photo dump to close this chapter. I’m stoked for the new space and the fresh ideas I have.

Stay tapped in.🫡

The Home Office. 🧪

Believe it or not, this is the longest I’ve ever had a single setup. I’ve spent countless hours here over the past 1.5 years working on content and with these new iPhones dropping it’ll get some more use soon here for sure. 😂🤘🏻

This past weekend was legendary. 📸

I had the opportunity to speak with some other incredible creators this past weekend about my story and approach with content.

I always say, the best part about ever picking up a camera is the people you meet along the way. Every single person in this room had a wild amount of talent.

Humbled to be part of this group. Each of these other 3 have all inspired me in the past, and I’m feeling more motivated than ever.

You’re always one moment away from something that could change your life forever. Keep pushin’. 🤘🏻

Huge shoutout to & for bringing me out. The creator kickstart was epic. Let’s run it back soon. 🤘🏻

48hrs in LA. 🌴

Surrounding yourself with other likeminded creators will forever be my favorite part of all of this.

I have the most talented friends in the game. It gets my recharged & fired up every time we hang.

I highly recommend taking a look around at the people you spend your time with and think about if they bring you up or if they bring you down.

I’ll tell you what, this crew is going up. 📈

Another trip around the sun today.🎉

This past year has been all about growth for me. On platforms, yes, but personal growth more than anything else. The countless amazing things, experiences or even the mistakes, I’ve learned from them all and then leveled up 10 fold.

But hands down the coolest part about this past year is the fact that if you told me 12 months ago that this is where I’d be in a year, I wouldn’t have believed you.

Here’s to doing that same thing next year, and then again the year after.

All the love and the support means to the world to me. Cheers to 32 and always improving.🤘🏻🎉

This trio right here. 📸🚀

The 3 of us have been pushing each other on our content for 5+ years now. It’s crazy to see how far we’ve all come, and the best is, we’re just getting warmed up.

Who you surround yourself with is everything. To the moon. 🚀

The Brand New Beats Studio Pro 🔥😮‍💨

🔈 Spatial Audio
🎧 ANC + Transparency
🔌 USB-C

100,000. 🤯

That number is mind blowing. I’m humbled by how many of you have taken the time to support my passion for creating.

This always started as a creative outlet for myself. Just something for fun. A place to try new styles of content, editing techniques, etc… and maybe what energy/coffee I’m sipping on.😉

I promise you I’m just a normal dude, trying to figure out what I like creating on a daily basis, dealing with the same struggles all creatives do and just trying to document my journey along the way.

Any support means the world and I always try to pay that forward.🙏🏻

This is proof that hard work pays off. Keep posting & keep pushin’.🚀

Announcing the 100k giveaway Monday (didn’t expect us to hit it this quickly. 🤣🤘🏻)

Grateful for this life I’m living. If you told me years ago I’d have these opportunities to do what I love for a living with the incredible people I’m surrounded by, I wouldn’t have believed you.

Things are clicking & firing on all cylinders lately. Crossed 97,000 here on IG today, which is pretty insane.

Here’s your push to not give up on the days that feel like you have nothing left to give.

1% better everyday, it adds up, especially on the hard days. Keep pushin’.🚀

(Oh yeah and we’re doing something sick at 100k, be sure to stay tuned.👀)
