Devices 📱
The core tech devices I use on a day-to-day basis. 👨💻
Where I do most of my work! I recently upgraded to the M4 Pro and absolutely love it! This is either the 3rd or 4th MacBook I've owned in my life (can't remember haha) and I have no plans on changing now.
Apple MacBook Pro
I use this mostly for music (choir rehearsals, reading charts, etc), but it is SO handy for a million different things!
Apple iPad
Not even sure how many iPhones I've had… I think my first was an iPhone 3! Say what you will, it is an incredible device and I have no plans to give it up! :)

I was one of those who resisted eReaders for the longest time… but I don't want to go back now! I still LOVE holding a real paperback or hardcover in my hands, but the convenience and flexibility is SO worth it.

Cords… dongles… adapters… all the things! 🔌
There is nothing worse than being without a charger so I have more than is probably necessary lol!
MagSafe MacBook charger
LOVE this laptop sleeve! It's so light, but durable. Really nice amount of extra storage in the pockets and the whole thing fits really nicely in any backpack/bag!
tomtoc 360° Protective Laptop Sleeve 13-inch
This one is an investment, I won't lie, but it's been totally worth it for me! I keep it on my home desk (it's a tad bulky to travel around with, all though you could!). When I'm working at home, I don't want to have to pull out 10 different adapters to run all my things, so I love that I can have everything go through this one hub!
Anker Prime TB5 Docking Station (14-in-1, 8K, Thunderbolt 5 )
No such thing as extra cables!
Anker Prime Thunderbolt 5 Cable, 3.3 FT USB-C
Love these chargers! So easy to just set your phone down and not have to deal with finicky cables.
iPhone Wireless Charger
Storage 💾
Always, always, always back it up! SESO - save early, save often. 😅
I keep all my music tracks, stems, etc on this. Can trust that it's safe, and it's so, so easy to take on-the-go!
Samsung T9 Portable SSD 2TB USB 3.2 Gen 2x2
I use this one as my “archive” drive to store all the old files (be that documents, charts, tracks, or what have you) that I want to save, but don't need regular access to anymore.
WD 5TB My Passport Portable External HDD
Music tech things 🎧
This section is for all my musician friends! 🎵🎶
I just invested in this around 6 months ago and absolutely love it! It works great for recording, and is perfect for running multitracks (what I use it most often for)!
MOTU M4 4x4 USB-C Audio Interface
One day I'll invest in the custom molden IEMs, but these work great for me right now! :)

Yes… I am the old geezer that tends to still prefer wired headphones. :)
