    Your mom and you should do a video together or maybe you can interview her about the industry, and how it has changed, and you guys can talk about employee vs. freelance.

    you should do a video of tips and tricks when going to school! how to practice, study, etc.

    So you can audio record depositions and trials in order to go back and listen to them in case you missed anything? Also I would love to know more about the process of becoming a scopist for a stenographer if you know how to go about that.

    I would also like information on what it is like being an official! I’m currently in speedbuilding and I am more drawn to an official position. 😊
    Thank you so much for this video!

    Hi there! I just found your videos and really appreciate you making these. I went to school for painting and have a bachelors of fine art, but I have found myself stuck in customer service roles and just scraping by since I graduated almost two years ago. I discovered court reporting when it was mentioned in a podcast I listen to, and found your videos shortly after. I'm also located in Texas, and really trying to figure out the best way to get into this! I have a lot of debt from going to school previously, so I am looking into online classes since they seem to be a bit more affordable. I plan on taking the NCRA free A to Z program to make sure that it is something that I want to spend time getting into. It feels like a lot of information at once but your videos have been the most helpful! Thank you

      same for me here! I’m planning on doing A to Z and based in Texas! Right now the confusing part for me is how the semesters work for ct reporting school and if i am able to start in the fall or not 🤔

    This video was the most interesting because I didn't know much about the freelance work or the professional structure of payments and scheduling. I very much enjoy the fact that it is similar to a personal business. You're in charge of your schedule and you can even hire scopists and such once you're at that point. Very interesting, thanks a bunch! Great vids

    Your videos helped me decide if I wanted to go into this field or not. Knowing a lot from what you shared helped me make the decision to sign up for court reporting school.

    14:47 per diem is latin for "per day", looks like a legal term that probably originated in labor/tax laws/regulations concerning compensation for travel/field work related expenses and got carried over to other occupations where task duration is unpredictable.

    Sorry for commenting so much, but do you use or send prospective clients to your website or Linkedin, or do you only use the attorneys you mentioned?

    Do know if it’s possible to be certified in multiple states? For freelance it seems like traveling and being able to take jobs in multiple locations would be a benefit

    Do court reporting when a translator with a second language going on is speaking right after a witness speaks - that must be hard
