Daniel Hipskind has been using Macs since he was ten years old. He got into developing iOS apps and jailbreaking with an iPod touch. Soon after that, he started making amateur YouTube videos in 2009 when he was 14 years old.
Further down his life, while in high school, he took an Introduction to Journalism class. He applied to join the High School newspaper and received a position as an Opinion Writer. As time went on, he became the Opinion Editor and then the Editor-in-Chief of the newspaper.
In college, while he didn't pursue a journalism degree, he continued to be contributing to his college's newspaper.
