The Technology I Use

For work, I use a Macbook Pro. I prefer to use Microsoft products for writing and spreadsheets, and I store everything in Google Drive.

When it comes to technology at home, I'm all Apple. I use an iPhone, AirPods, Macbook, HomePod mini, and Apple TV. For gaming, I've owned every Nintendo console, and I love bringing my Switch with me when I travel. Lately, I've been playing the PlayStation, and love the more advanced gaming system.

I've been a long-time Spotify user for music and podcast streaming. I still stick to physical books when it comes to literature consumption, which I do a lot of!
