Software I use, gadgets I love, and other things I recommend.

People always ask about my creative setup—everything from the gear I depend on to make art and design, to the apps that keep me (mostly) on track. Here’s a big list of all of my favorite stuff.

Workstation

  • iPhone 16 Pro Max

    It always surprises people that I rely on a phone as my main workstation, The smaller form factor makes sense if you're focused on social media and it helps me keep designs concise and visually striking, exactly the way they'll appear in someone's feed. It's always within reach, so I'm never far from inspiration-or a deadline.

  • iPad Pro 12.9” 5th Gen

    For whenever I need more room to sketch or prototype. A paper-like screen protector helps it feel traditional, but I can keep adding layers and undo any mistakes without running out of space.

  • MacBook Air 2020

    It might be a little dated, but it still handles everyday tasks like a champ and can even keep up with heavier design software when deadlines loom. Definitely a reminder that you don't always need the newest gear to get real work done.

Art & Design

  • Procreate

    My favorite tool for digital sketching and painting. I love that classic pen-on-paper vibe, and unlimited layers mean I can iterate without worrying about ruining a piece.

  • GoDaddy Studio

    A go-to for quick social media graphics or brand visuals. It saves me so much time when I have to churn out something polished on short notice.

  • Adobe Creative Cloud

    Where I handle photo edits and vector work in one place. It keeps everything I need in sync and makes juggling different projects a little less chaotic.

  • Figma

    Collaboration is key for many of my projects, so having a real-time, cloud-based space for feedback has been a game-changer. No more endless versions floating around in my inbox.

AI

  • ChatGPT

    I bounce ideas off it when I'm stuck on a creative direction or need quick copy suggestions. It's like having a brainstorming buddy who's always on call.

  • Runway ML

    Video work can be a time sink, so any help with rotoscoping and background removal is a major win. I'm always blown away by how much time I save now.
