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

I get lots of comments on YouTube videos asking about my setup. Here’s a big list of all of my favorite gear and tools. Some are affiliate links, but I only recommend products I use and love.

Workstation

14” MacBook Pro, M2 Pro, 32GB RAM (2023)

I was using an Intel-based 16” MacBook Pro prior to this and the difference is night and day. The M series is great!
LG 4K UHD 27UD88-W 27" LED-Lit Monitor with USB Type-C

I'm not a huge connoisseur of monitors, but this one is great. It powers the laptop and has several USB-A ports for audio gear and my keyboard.
CODE Keyboard from WASD Keyboards (Cherry MX Clear)

I like the 87-Key without the number pad because I feel like my hands stay centered a little better.
Apple Magic Mouse

So good, I have two of them.
UPLIFT Standing desk

I only stand about 10% of the time, but it's worth it for the days I do.

Development tools

Cursor

As of Sept 2025, I'm using Cursor as my primary editor. I find myself switching often between Claude Code, Codex, and Q for my terminal based agents.
Warp

Warp.dev is my terminal of choice. It’s fast, it’s got great autocompletion, and it feels clean. They rapidly ship AI features that I've started to rely on.
