TheUrbanPrepper
My YouTube channel features emergency preparedness topics and related gear reviews. Since I live and work in the greater Seattle area, my focus is on “Urban” preparedness and not on Rural environment related concepts.
My goal is to provide video content that is family-friendly, entertaining and accessible to a wide audience. I work in software engineering, so many of the projects and gear testing that I upload to YouTube leverage engineering skills; planning, organization, scientific method testing and documentation. I try to treat all of my large projects or “kits” as open-source projects that viewers can leverage and customize to their own set of needs.
