Our game, Dooley Rider, sought to address a very common issue that everyone has: time management. The idea started with me and Alex discussing various ways in which Emory has taught us to balance our time.

Testing out a podcast
So this was my first time making a podcast, and it was also Michelle’s first time working on one too.

My avatar is an anachronistic play on the Star Trek captain’s uniform. My avatar is Captain Kirk from the original series. When I was little, my dad would watch this show with me all the time because it’s what he grew up with when he was my age. I loved the series and when I […]
