I’ve published nearly 200 videos on YouTube, and the vast majority of those were short videos under a minute in length. Some of them have seen a lot of attention, and others not so much.

It’s actually pretty wild to see how my videos changed in just 12 months. I enjoyed putting it together, and I hope you’ll enjoy watching it.
