Why our students love learning with BYOL
“This video is a good match for me because I already know the basics but wanted a refresher course on some of the items that I do not typically use on a daily basis. The video moves at a nice pace for a refresher. Not too slow, but not too fast so that I am missing part of the materials. I like not having to continuously stop or slow down the video.”
“Really Amazing course for anyone who is new to Microsoft excel. The course helped me understand how useful excel can be and I'm getting better at keeping my data organized.”
“Very easy to follow and input the information correctly.”
“Most of this was things I already knew however I watched it for the Graphs and Pivot Tables sections. I learned more about those two things so that I can utilize them in my work.”

“Love the clear explanantions, very pleasant speaking speed, easy to understand. Thank you very much!”
“I was looking to expand my knowledge and Excel was always one of those systems that seemed a bit scary to approach. Having just completed Dan's "Figma UI UX Essentials" course, I knew what I was getting into and Dan's teaching style once again has helped me overcome any hesitation going into Microsfot Excel. Highly recommend!”

“Very happy with the course - again! Perfectly chosen parts, not too much new for myself but a great selection of most useful tips and tricks for a beginner to get very far. (Therefore... great idea for some of the colleagues. ;)) Your way of presentation and adressing the course participants is great - so are the examples, the material and the shortcuts! Love them. Thanks again!”
“Just finished the Course ! Great Course, thank you very much for these awesome course about excel, i use it a lot but learn a few new tricks and could easily refresh and update my knowledge and add new skills.

“If you would like to learn Excel, but you fall asleep every time you open it, then this is an excelent course for you. :) Dan's playful teaching style, can make you see Excel in a new light. It gave me good grasp of Excel essentials while having fun. Thnx Dan.”
“Dan's courses are always great because it's hands-on and not a boring lecture. I like that he actually gives you projects and practice assignments. Whoever decided that giving lectures was the best way to teach must have been an attention freak. This was very helpful for me. I will continue to take these courses and recommend them to the people around me.”
“Loved the course, Dan! Another awesome, well-explained Bootcamp with great exercises along the way. I am a designer who has never really used Excel and wanted to learn the basics. I learned so much thanks to you. Especially loved the part about charts/graphs which will be helpful in working with non-designers to make data visualization prettier.”

I discovered the world of design as an art student when I stumbled upon a lab full of green & blue iMac G3’s. My initial curiosity around using the computer to create ‘art’ 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.
