I'm a busy person, a college student who works a job on the weekends. While I do tend to do deep dives into certain topics I also appreciate brevity. Sometimes I'm just eager to get to the point like many of us get from time to time but when it comes to quality work I don't mind reading a bit. My classmates do fantastic work that is often filled to the brim with interactivity and information. Elizabeth Nalley delivered consistently strong work and had a fantastic layout for her blog.

One thing I appreciate about her work is the various range of topics she chose to cover. From popular country musicians, to hit films, and politics. I didn't find repetition or pigeonholing which I myself an often times guilty of. I particularly enjoyed her piece on the youth and their opinion towards voting, her writing style was concise and easy to take in. I thought she acknowledged both sides of the argument but still made it known what her opinion was. As a young potential voter I identified with this feeling of "why bother" when it comes to elections.
Another solid example of her work that I liked was her post on the new Joker film. Her use of interactivity throughout added another dimension to the text. As a film devotee and an avid DC fan I always love to see the success of comic book films. I feel like Elizabeth's use of box office facts, current news (police at the showings), of course the memes, made this a very good read. I enjoyed the abundant visuals which accentuated the tone of the story nicely. Overall I would give her a 9.5/10.

Another student who's work I thought deserved a quick shout out was Cameron Carter. I've had classes with Cameron before and I've always enjoyed her presentation style. She always delivers clean and concise opinions which leave no question how she feels. I find this kind of genuine honesty refreshing. Overall I'd say 8.5/10, the only clear issues I saw were tech related and not her fault.
