Discount Codes

Below you will find a few discount codes to help you with education, or purchase and rental of gear.

Note: These are NOT affiliate codes, so I do not make a commission when these are used. They are simply a courtesy from a few past guests, or sites and services that I believe in.

This list is a work in progress, and I am working to add to it over time. Check back on occasion, or follow me on Twitter or Instagram for updates.
