What's the coolest thing you've learned in Web Design so far? Why is it so cool and how can it help you in the future?

The coolest thing I have learned in Web Design so far is how to keep the navigation bar at the top of the screen at all times! When you scroll down, the navigation will stay right at the top so that the user can always have access to the navigation bar, rather than having to scroll all the way up to the top of the page again.

Define 'User Experience'. What does it mean and how does it relate to web design? Explain yourself.

User Experience is how interactive and how enjoyable the website is for the user. The user should be entertained or find the aspects of what they are looking at enjoyable. For a website, the website should have a great User Experience! the user should not find your website boring if you want them to keep looking at it. If they are not enjoying the website, they will go right on to the next one.

What is a resume website? What do people put on resume websites. Spend about 5-10 minutes looking up resume websites and what they are used for. Explain what you find. Include an image of a resume website if possible.

A resume website is a website for companies to look at when they are interviewing people for jobs. The company will want to know about the person, his experience and skills, before they choose to hire him/her. A person will put his past experience and jobs, his special skills for the area of work, and a little bit about him (i.e. how to contact him) on their website. A lot of times websites are styled to look like the job they are going for; if a coder was looking for a job they would put crazy awesome coding attributes on their website.

Who do you look up to in your life? Why do you look up to them? Tell me about them and some of their characteristics that you admire.

I look up to my director at The Culture House, Amy Sander. Amy is incredible! She is the greatest director I have ever worked with! She knows how to work with actors and actresses perfectly, how to set up all of the tech to make the spectacle better, and she knows how to make every show she works with an amazing production! She also is a great Christian that encourages the students in her company to keep God and Jesus present in our lives and to do our craft through him! I love the way that she can be the example for all of us in how she lives our life, and help us truly enjoy what we are doing with the arts!

Tell me about your weekend.

This weekend was very relaxed for me. On Saturday, I had quite a bit to do but I was pretty relaxed during it. In the morning, I went to KC A Capella rehearsal! We are rehearsing to record an album. Then I went skeet shooting with my dad and some of the guys from my church's youth group. It was a blast! That night, I went over to my girlfriend's house and we hung out and watched a movie. We watched, "Patch Adams." It was a phenomenal movie! So good!! We were exhausted and accidentally fell asleep. 

On Sunday, I went to church in the morning, and youth group at night. Afterwards, my family had my girlfriend's family over and we had a bonfire! This weekend was overall very fun!

If you were the Principal for a week at BVHS, what would that look like? What changes would you make? Why?

If I was the principal for the week I would want to make everyone known. I would have every club, organization, and group showcased in front of the school. I wouldn't just tell people to go see them on their own time, I would show everyone off in an assembly. Every group has great people in it and has their own specialties, and I would want the whole school to see those. I would also want to meet everyone. That sounds impossible but I would want to do it. I would like to talk to every student and learn about them and make them feel loved. I would also like to go to all of the classes and see how the teachers are doing. If students think teachers are teaching very well, I would work with that teacher to make it better. But I would want everyone to know that they are special.

Tell me about your weekend.

This weekend I did more musical theatre things! I went to the Book of Mormon on Sunday Night at the Music Hall! It was a VERY racist and explicit show but it was also VERY funny! My favorite scene was called, "I Believe." It is a very powerful in the second act that also has great humor in it. The actor's were phenomenal, the sets were crazy good, the humor made me cry I was laughing so hard, and the tech was really cool. Earlier that day, I got to spend time with my girlfriend in the snow! It was a blast! We had a snowball fight and made snow angels and a snowman!

Overall, this weekend was a blast!
