+## Install Apple Remote Desktop
+# NB: These commands are when using SSH to connect, when connected with SSM, switch to ec2-user first with 'su -c ec2-user'
+
+# set a password to ec2-user
+sudo passwd ec2-user
+
+# enable ARD 
+sudo /System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/Resources/kickstart \
+-activate -configure -access -on \
+-restart -agent -privs -all
+
+## SSM Tunnels to connect to Apple Remote Desktop
+
+```shell
+# first, select the instance ID of the machine you want to connect
+# the below command search for a machine named "macOS Monterey"
+INSTANCE_ID=$(aws ec2 describe-instances                                                 \
+               --filter "Name=tag:Name,Values=macOS Monterey"                            \
+               --query "Reservations[].Instances[?State.Name == 'running'].InstanceId[]" \
+               --output text)
+
+# second, start the SSM tunnel
+aws ssm start-session --target $INSTANCE_ID                           \
+                       --document-name AWS-StartPortForwardingSession \

+## Connect w/ssh and tunnel VNC ports
