I uninstalled a kext from Snagit because I thought it might be the cause.
would love to find out what my next steps may be.

What is your macOS version presently? Did you run the on board diagnostics?
Did you try wiping the drive (reformat it & installing a fresh copy of macOS)?

I am running 10.15.1 (catalina) I haven to done a refresh. I am planning on doing so. I have reset my NVRAM and SMC. This random shutdowns carried over from 10.14 but I still had snag it installed back then.
