???? Happy New Year, friends!
Here’s a warm wrap-up of what 2025 looked like for this ukulele channel — and a look ahead to what’s coming in 2026!

A few highlights from this year:

Started Ukulele with Barry in May 2025 — and already monetized!

Built a welcoming community of older beginners & new players ❤️

Worked with TOM Ukulele, BeatBuddy, Xvive, and became a Sweetwater Affiliate

Finished writing my original Christmas song after two years of carrying the melody around

Spent the past two weeks focusing on my upcoming Guitar 101 course coming soon!
