I’m excited to start the new cohort of #Ship30for30!

I’ll be posting short daily essays/threads about the creator economy, building your content campsite, and how creators can use productivity strategies to get more done.

If you want to get my essays via email, link below 👇

I was employee 5 at @ConvertKit & ran creator success at @podia.

I built my YouTube channel (57k subs) & business on the side, going full-time this year.

What’s the biggest struggle you have with publishing your creative work? I want to help!
