I run
Descript Mastery where I teach people how to grow their business through video content. Mainly, I teach a video editing software called Descript but I've started to teach other tools like CapCut, Canva, and general Youtube strategy.
I'm learning Spanish. It’s been a slow process but I'm making progress each day. I'm about an A2/B1 level (intermediate) with a goal to be B2.
