Let’s start 2026 on the right foot—together.
I’m asking my community to help me raise support and awareness for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.
The people at St. Jude work tirelessly—day and night—to find cures and save the lives of children battling devastating diseases. And they do something truly extraordinary: they never bill families. No parent should have to choose between their child’s life and financial ruin.
Disease doesn’t discriminate. Almost every one of us has lost someone to it—and I recently did. When it hits close to home, everything changes.
That’s why I’m committing to a 90-day challenge to raise $1,000. It’s a small goal with a massive impact. Every dollar helps give a child a fighting chance and supports the research that saves lives.
If this cause speaks to you—even a little—I invite you to join me.
Donate if you can. Share if you can’t. Stand with these families.
Let’s do something meaningful together.

Happy New Year to all 19,100+ subscribers.
Thank you for an outstanding close to 2025.
This year, the channel generated 348,918 views, welcomed 6,400 new subscribers, and delivered over 2,100 hours of watch time to students focused on learning and certification.
I’m grateful for the opportunity to teach this material the way it was meant to be taught—clearly, practically, and without unnecessary red tape or politics. This approach has allowed me to help thousands of students earn their certifications with confidence, and I look forward to continuing that work in the year ahead.
Thank you for your trust, your support, and your commitment to learning.

Big upgrades coming.
We’re uploading a large wave of new Shorts with clean, professional audio that finally matches the quality of the lessons you expect.
You may notice fewer videos on the channel—and that’s intentional.
We reduced the library from 500 to 358 and will continue refining it. This is about quality over quantity.
Every new upload in 2026 is focused on:
Clear, easy-to-hear instruction
Stronger technical production
Better retention and higher exam pass rates
I’m rebuilding this library so you can learn faster, understand more clearly, and walk into exams confident.
More clarity. Better sound. Stronger results.

I'm in the process of cleaning up some of the shorts on this channel. Shorts that have died in growth and aren't growing in views. Making room for newer, more helpful shorts in 2026.
