I often get asked what tools I use so I thought I'd create this handy list to share with you. These are all things that I use on a daily basis and love.
This page is a work in progress. I'll be adding and updating as my workflow changes and I find new things that I love.
Starting a Blog?
If you want to start a blog, use BlueHost for your hosting. They have amazing customer support and can help you through all the steps getting started. And they've saved my behind a few times when I made a mistake with coding. I highly recommend BlueHost for your hosting.
And I have a special discounted rate for you. Starting with a self-hosted blog on WordPress is a smart way to go!

Canva was my secret weapon for great designs for a long time, then I worked with them as their Head of Social Strategy to help more people learn how to create their own designs.
What I love most: easy to use, and great email tutorials, Canva Pro is amazing, and it saves all my designs to reuse and remix later.
