Following your various learning courses is making it a breeze to get caught up on everything I've missed, or never learned in the first place. Great work!”
“Love Dan, he's so human. I know that he is, but you know what I mean.”
“The instructor's voice is animated and funny. His directions are easy to follow.”

The instructor has a great way of making complex tools feel approachable and fun. Every lesson was packed with value, and it honestly made me want to take all of his courses. Highly recommended!”
“I already have some knowledge of animation from other programs, back in the day Flash MX, so some of this is familiar. I am also getting familiar with Premier Pro, and my main focus is which, and when, and also the integration with other Adobe projects such as Illustrator, so I can create my projects.

Daniel Scott
Founder of Bring Your Own Laptop & Chief Instructor

I discovered the world of design as an art student when I stumbled upon a lab full of green & blue iMac G3โs. My initial curiosity around using the computer to create โartโ developed into a full-blown passion, eventually leading me to become a digital designer and founder of Bring Your Own Laptop.
Sharing and teaching are a huge part of who I am. As a certified Adobe instructor, I've had the honor of winning multiple Adobe teaching awards at their annual MAX conference. I see Bring Your Own Laptop as the supportive community I wished for when I was first starting out and intimidated by design. Through teaching, I hope to bring others along for the ride and empower my students to bring their stories, labors of love, and art into the world.
True to my Kiwi roots, I've lived in many places, and currently, I reside in Ireland with my wife and kids.
