Laughs, Lessons, & Kudos
I certainly haven’t held back this past week regarding last week’s weather fiasco in Atlanta, but as promised, this post is dedicated to some of the more light-hearted aspects. Wednesday, January 29 was pretty memorable in a couple of ways: Somewhere around 9:30 AM that morning, my mom conceded. She admitted that this fiasco was… Read more

My 7 Irritations that Didn’t Melt With the Ice
I’ve been asked about a follow-up blog post, so here it is! I’ve had seven days to think about this, and unfortunately, I have too much to say to fit in one post (shocking). The good news is that the post to follow this one will be much more positive and should surely provide some… Read more

Polished
Earlier today, I was preparing an article for this week’s e-newsletter. I wasn’t satisfied with the image that was sent to me, so I polished it in Photoshop. This is certainly not an example of my most earth-shattering work, but what it does illustrate is my role in action. My title at Trinity is Digital… Read more
