Strategic Presentation is turning out to be one of the most useful classes at Rutgers. In the class, I am using skills that will help me in any job in the future. The skills will also help me get a job and I am adding these skills to my resume.
Creating a Website
The final assignment in Strategic Presentation is creating a professional website. Since I am trying to get an internship in Information Technology or Data Science, this is very important for me to build. I hope to send out my website address to internships that I find at this week’s Rutgers Career Fair. Strategic Presentation class gives me the chance to work on tasks that will benefit me in real life.
On my professional website, I am going to include a homepage with my photo and a design. I am going to upload my resume on the Experience page. On the About Me page, I will talk more about my hobbies and link to some of my posts from Strategic Presentation class. On the Projects page, I am going to link to the projects I am working on in Object Oriented Programming and Fundamentals of Data Curation and Management. I will also edit and link to my LinkedIn page to try and get an internship. My instagram profile is fun for me and shows my posts related to my hobby, fantasy football predictions and the fun I have with the Marching Scarlet Knights.
Creating a Podcast
In Strategic Presentation, I created a podcast using Audacity. This helped me with public speaking. I liked creating the background music for the podcast since music is one of my hobbies.
Canva
In Strategic Presentation, I also learned Canva. I use Canva for social media posts, and to create the logo for my podcast.
Screencast
In Strategic Presentation, I also learned how to make a screencast. This helped me with my public speaking and will hopefully help me in my life.
In conclusion, Strategic Presentation is a very useful class that will help me in real life. I had a great time making the podcast and recommend the class to other Rutgers students!
Title of Episode: 2025 Fantasy Football First Round Mock Draft!
How I Created the Podcast
I created this podcast since I study fantasy football ranking for fun! I know a lot about football and I am interested in how players rank and creating week by week predictions. This podcast is for my friends who like fantasy football, who want to place bets on fantasy and create the possible best team.
I interviewed Mr. Gary Michaels, an expert fan, to help the audience understand the rankings. I made lists of the best players and then created an outline for the podcast.
To begin, I drafted a script. I presented the possible questions to my guest for the interview. I reviewed multiple websites that list fantasy football rankings and used my own knowledge as well to create the rankings.
In the episode, I used ranking websites such as Fantasy Pros, NBC Sports, and CBS Sports. I also listened to the Spotify podcasts called Fantasy Footballers and Fantasy Life Show. I used social media for my research as well. See below for the best fantasy football websites!
The Fantasy Pros website is used to interpret the specific tiers of players through the “overall” button on the website. Moreover, the fantasy pros website provides clear information on the rankings of players for the upcoming season. As the weeks go by, the website also shows weekly rankings. This allows me to find out if my predictions of the rankings are right or wrong. Of course, not every single ranking that I predict will be correct each week. For example, whenever it is halfway through the NFL season, I like to press the buttons on the fantasy pros website of “week”, “PPR”, and “overall.”
I use the CBS sports link either on my phone app or the website to preview fantasy football. CBS Sports provides depth of information to read about the players in an understandable way. Additionally, CBS Sports presents the information in a user friendly way. It is easier for me to read the information rather than continuing to sweep through videos with closed captions. For example, whenever I like to search articles from google called “fantasy football mock draft”, I will find one of its platforms to look at the information through the CBS sports website.
I often listen to Spotify to hear the opinions of fantasy football experts. The experts predict how each player will be ranked by performance in their matchups. For example, by searching podcasts named “fantasy football” in the Spotify platform, I find the ones that help me give the best tips for me to succeed with my league regardless of my projection. If I need to hear the fantasy football expert multiple times, I will either rewind the podcast or fast forward it. Furthermore, going backwards or forwards in time on the podcast allows specific evaluation. It is helpful for me to hear why experts think these players can shine the most throughout the season. Spotify is user friendly if its listeners miss information or have trouble hearing the experts.
The best trip of my life was going to Phoenix, Arizona. I really enjoyed it when I went to Phoenix, Arizona to perform at the Rutgers Rate Bowl Game with the marching scarlet knights. When I went to Phoenix with the Rutgers marching scarlet knights, it was the first time I traveled on a charter plane in my life. After I got to Phoenix, me and the marching band performed in the pep rally throughout the boardwalk before entering the Chase Field ballpark which was the best moment of the Rate Bowl game. Anyway, I had so much fun performing in the stands at Chase Field throughout my Phoenix trip amid our Rutgers football team’s 41-44 loss to Kansas State.
The best trip of my life was when I traveled to Indianapolis, IN. As I traveled to Indianapolis, IN, it was the first time that I went on a Big Ten Tournament trip with the Rutgers pep band. Moreover, I went to Indianapolis, IN with some of the members in my pep band for the women’s basketball big ten tournament. As I was in Indianapolis for the women’s big ten tournament trip with the pep band, I got to perform in the stands at the Pacers arena which is “Gainbridge Fieldhouse.”
What I liked about my Indianapolis trip was being able to go to the mall especially with a ton of down time and then Dave and Buster’s to conclude the overnight trip. We had to go to Dave and Buster’s because of our flight date change from the expected travel back.
The bets trip of my life was going to Greeley, Pennsylvania with my high school marching band for band camp after having pre-camp in my local town of Westfield, NJ. The names of the camps in Greeley, PA that me and my high school’s marching band went to included Lake Owego which was freshmen and sophomore year and then Timber Tops that was my senior year. However, I did not get to go to Greeley, PA with my high schools marching band in junior year due to COVID. I really liked going to Greeley, PA for band camp back in high school because it was very good preparation for the season before the school year started. Furthermore, I really enjoyed the routine between morning, afternoon, and evening block at band camp on a Greeley, PA trip which was the key principle for the preparation throughout the overnight trip.
Another thing that I liked throughout my overnight trip in Greeley, PA back in high school was participating in the student vs. teacher corn hole tournament at Camp Timber Tops and watching the student vs. teacher basketball game at Lake Owego. These were all activities that I did after evening block throughout my time there. I was also very lucky to have my senior night celebration dinner at Camp Timber Tops and also the bonfire to reflect on my experiences throughout my high school marching band career.
The best trip of my life was going on a trip with band to Newark, Delaware. Back when I was a freshmen in high school, I went on a marching band trip to the University of Delaware for a Bands of America regional event. The best moment from when I went to University of Delaware in Newark, DE for a Bands of America event was making the finals. I also went there with my wind ensemble class back when I was a senior in high school which was a day trip.
The best trip of my life was going to College Park, Maryland. I went to College Park, MD back as a sophomore and senior in high school to perform at the University of Maryland in the Bands of America Regional prelims and finals. Throughout my trip in College Park, MD before COVID hit, I was very pleased about getting the opportunity to have a night time rehearsal which showed a big benefit to me and my high school’s marching band improving on finals place from my freshmen year when I was a sophomore.
The best trip of my life was going to Venice, Italy with my family. When I was in Venice, I really enjoyed going to the Vivaldi concert to hear an ensemble play one of his pieces called “Four Seasons of Spring.” Another thing that I liked about Venice was riding the boats. Therefore, Venice was the best part of my Italy trip that I went on.
The best trip of my life was going to Spain especially traveling to the cities of Madrid, Malaga, and Barcelona. Back when I went to Madrid, I went to go watch the soccer team of Atletico Madrid and attended a bullfight event with my family. One thing that I like about my trip in Spain was going to the Museo Picasso in Malaga. I really liked looking at all the paintings that Pablo Picasso published at the Museo Picasso which showed a great inspiration to me and my family throughout our time in Malaga.
As we look into the future, it is very significant to think about the potential places of where we could be in our lives.
In five years, I hope to have a radiology technician job. I hope to have a radiology technician job because I am able to see visual differences and am good with data. I would good at interpreting on images of humans with broken bones through x-rays. Particularly, a radiology technician is best known for taking pictures of a person’s illness or problem areas. However, a human’s broken bones is not the only principle that a radiology technician takes control over.
In five years, I hope to have a healthcare informatics job. The most important principle in healthcare informatics is making a patient’s health better. In order to make a patient’s health better, doctors must communicate with the specific patient about the reason why their health is getting worse. Basically, it is very crucial to insert data about the reason why the specific patient needs to see the doctor.
In five years, I hope to have a dog breed of a labrador retreiver. Obviously, I find labradors to be the most type of friendly dogs to me because they are one of the most popular dog breeds. Additionally, labradors are very fun to play with and take on walks especially in moderately hot and cold weather which is the type of weather they enjoy the most. Another thing that I like about labradors is that I like to cuddle with them on a couch and all places. I also like to pet labradors. Therefore, labradors are my most favorite type of dogs.
In five years, I hope to continue to live my life as a huge American football fan in the professional football environment. Ideally, I want to have myself into thinking about the NFL 2030’s time once it comes to the 2030 campaign to see who can start improving as there is always hope for an improved decade for any team. Furthermore, I would plan to watch the NFL 2030 campaign to find out who has began the most growth since the time between the 2020 and 2029 campaign to start the 2030’s time. I also hope to have my American football fan life continue to preview every single game of the NFL 2030 regular season or playoffs for the Super Bowl 65 road trip before they take action.
In five years, I hope to live in Bridgewater, New Jersey. Particularly, I am hoping to live very close to the Somerset Patriots baseball park in five years even though it is located in Bridgewater, NJ as I hope to go to a lot of Somerset Patriots games in 2030. Another thing I like about Bridgewater, NJ is its excellent high school. To illustrate this point, Bridgewater, NJ is one of the most friendliest high schools on earth especially that it is a very large high school which provides great connections of people in its community. Also, the Bridgewater, NJ community has a great connection of the sports as there are tons of fans at their home games.
In five years, I hope to continue to live my life as a baseball fan. According to this five year future hope, I hope to go to the ballpark more and more in the warm weather and continue to enjoy the tradition of baseball fan excellence. Building onto this, I hope to have a favorite MLB team of the New York Yankees in 2030.
In five years, I hope to go back to living as a fan of my favorite DS game called “New Super Mario Nintendo DS” which has existed since 2006. However, I have been continuing to watch videos of other people playing New Super Mario Nintendo 2006 DS through Youtube which is what I like to do without my DS. Particularly, back when I was young, I was very obsessed with the New Super Mario DS game and played it a lot of times back then. Anyway, I have a dream of continuing to going back to living a DS fan in 2030 after it has been a while for me.
In five years, I hope to continue to be a fan of the game of chess. I really enjoy playing chess because it is one of the most fun games and a lot of people like it. This picture reminds of me the Chess Club that I participate in at Rutgers University.
In five years, I hope to continue to be a fan of March Madness Men’s Basketball. I really enjoy march madness a lot because it brings the highest fun energy with all the matchups being very unpredictable. Moreover, I like to look at articles or social media posts of the matchups that experts think upsets can happen within. Before March Madness starts with men’s basketball, I always watch the Selection Sunday event show. March Madness men’s basketball is one of my most favorite sporting events of a year even though I am so obsessed with how my bracket is doing in each tournament in my men’s leagues.
It is very important for college students to keep up with our self-care and mental health. One of the ways I do this is through exercise which is one of the most important principles of life for me.
Throughout my boxing routine, it is completed within a class as it usually benefits my ability to lose weight. Particularly, a group cardio boxing class is my main workout. I enjoy having instructors ask me and the group what to do. Technically, the instructor in my group boxing cardio class tells me whether I need to be at the boxing or weight lifting bench station depending on where I started. Switching things up makes it fun and easy to pay attention and not miss any instruction.
I like going to the gym at Rutgers, it’s social and I am able to complete a workout! I keep track of how long I am doing this specific cardio gym machine to find out if it is enough endurance for me. I work on building my endurance either with or without class cardio workouts. I keep my number of minutes per exercise different in which I always like to do them for 30 or over minutes. I like to change my individual cardio gym routine between bike, treadmill, elliptical, or steps.
Either at home in Westfield or on campus, walking helps me stay stress free as it is one of my key routines for when I workout. Moreover, I really enjoy listening to music with my headphones throughout my walking exercise routines because it is a good sign for me to keep my brain checked in. Obviously, walking is the best stress free method for me because I really enjoy going outside for fresh air.
I ran winter and spring track for all 4 years of high school. I can always go for a run to recharge and feel great. Whenever I go for runs outdoors, I use either a map, my run app or my watch to keep track of the minutes and miles I run whenever I run individually. Additionally, both the map my run app and watch really help me balance my weight for when I complete my outdoor jogging exercise task. Alternatively, I like to go for outdoor runs whenever the temperature is mild.
Weight lifting is great for making my arms stronger and muscular. Alternatively, I like to increase the size of the weight per weight lifting workout routine. For example, whenever I do the bicep curls with dumbbells, I like to change the size from 30 to 35. To illustrate this point, 30 and 35 size are my strengths when using dumbbells. I hope to do a 40 size dumbbell of bicep curls one day.
I try to make sure I have enough time to complete my tasks which are influenced by what I need to get done. Moreover, I set plans for myself with how I am going to play out how much time I will spend on each specific task of my to-do list. For example, whenever I set a routine plan of working out on my to-do-list, I want to make sure I have an efficient amount of homework or studying done in order to save enough time for me to go to the gym. Obviously, both homework and workout plans for a to-do list are a very big benefit for my time management whenever I do not have other activities.
The main purpose of my screencast is to teach the audience about NFL fantasy QB prediction rankings. The rankings are important when preparing for the 2025 season so that the audience can build a better fantasy team no matter the score prediction. Furthermore, this screencast benefits people because they find it very interesting to evaluate on the specific principles of why they think each interpretation of QB ranking could happen. Based on my rankings, fantasy participants can earn points and even money! I hope you enjoy my screencast!
An inspirational quote that I live by is a quote from a former NFL wide receiver named Jerry Rice in which he states, “Today I will do what others won’t, so tomorrow I can do what others can’t.” The key phrase “I will do” is used because it indicates that all humans should focus on goals for themselves and not focus on what other people are able to get done. This inspirational quote inspires me to work hard so I can accomplish my goals. It also inspires me to achieve goals that others may think are not achievable for me. I have to work harder than most to achieve my goals but I am willing to do it.
One way this inspirational quote impacts my life is through achieving my goals through checklists. I break down individual tasks for what I want to accomplish by creating a checklist either on paper or my online notes app. Additionally, a checklist is a very significant object for humans to use whenever they are getting things done with their tasks and they do not focus on other peoples task checklists.
For example, getting a task done by completing exercise five days a week is a good goal to set for yourself but not all other people can achieve this goal especially that humans have different work out schedules. However, not all humans achieve the same tasks that others do as we have different abilities to influence ourselves. Therefore, getting tasks done is an individual job of accomplishment throughout the course of responsibilities.
I live by the quote in which the greatest NBA player of all time named Michael Jordan says, “Talent wins games, but teamwork and intelligence win championships.” The key phrase “teamwork and intelligence” is used to show that when an NBA team works with one another, they discuss what they should do in order to be at a very high level. In contrast, it is an NBA athlete’s individual job to take control of their own skills for how they will succeed on the court for themselves while taking individual interpretations of what they need to get done through both individual and team practices.
I am inspired by NBA players and their focus and communication. As NBA players communicate with one another about what to do with their game plans, they focus on how the team can show its ability to score a lot of points, win a lot of games, and show that they are on a very elite level. This motivates me to stay focused and try to improve my communication with others as well. In order to be on an elite level of the NBA, the team must practice a lot even when they can practice at their own time and prove to the coach successfully that they are ready for practice before games. This inspires me to practice my instrument so I am a key player in the band! Furthermore, after an NBA team plays at an elite level in a game throughout matchups against powerhouse teams and bad teams, the coach will say, “you guys communicate really well, you guys practice really well, I really like how we replicate our successful practice into real games a lot, we are the real deal.” To summarize, I aspire myself to communicate well with others, practice hard and be the real deal with my own goals.
I live by the quote in which a former NFL head coach named Tom Landry mentions, “Leadership is a matter of having people look at you and gain confidence, seeing how you react. If you’re in control, they’re in control.” The key phrase “gain confidence” is used because it represents that it is a head coach’s responsibility to take control of all players on their team to verify if they are confidently doing their part or showing lack of communication in the NFL. Even though I have obstacles to overcome, I try to act confidently and with power. If I believe that I am confident and with power, I will be able to succeed with my objectives.
Moreover, if an NFL head coach notices that all of the players are doing their part as a complete team, it is very likely that the advantages of communication will lead to team success on the field. This is the way we practice at the Marching Scarlet Knights and Pep Band. Specifically, our team leaders look for confidence and control which are the key factors of practice. Additionally, as an NFL head coach is presenting a film with its players to watch and study plays before a game, the leadership will replicate onto the turf in order to succeed and use the tools to win. However, not all teams can win a game after watching a film even though all teams watch films before they have their matchups. Particularly, NFL head coaches must evaluate how the players do in practice throughout their process of watching practice films as they come up with current improvement designs for their players to work on. To illustrate this point, practice is very important to prepare for a football game and all NFL athletes must interpret their skills as they pay attention to what the head coach asks them to do on the field.
About 5 years ago, my friends, family and followers encouraged me to keep posting my NFL statistics and reviews. My followers like to use them for fantasy! So here is a breakdown of what I do during NFL season and throughout the off season too!
This image of the Buffalo Bills @ Detroit Lions game preview of my instagram story regarding my NFL on CBS hobby is used to indicate that the league expected it to be a total scoring game somewhere 80 total points or higher prior to the battle. I got into the hobby of paying attention to the NFL on CBS Instagram account because it is one of the specific NFL instagram accounts that brings me attention to games that use information for more likely really high scoring games which is relevant to a pair of teams that rank very high in offensive scoring, and a very good chance of an entertaining QB duel battle happening.
Moreover, when I check stuff about the NFL via its CBS Instagram, I am a big fan of looking at the games that are going to happen in the 4:25 PM Eastern Slot. Anyway, late afternoon NFL games that take place on the CBS channel at 4:25 PM Eastern Time slots are more exciting than the 4:05 PM Eastern Time slots throughout the regular season.
Score Prediction Interpretation Image (Instagram)
My favorite hobby is putting instagram stories from an Instagram account named “NFL” because it displays that I really enjoy looking at its posts which is one of the other sports Instagram accounts besides the NFL on CBS that gives me previews about games expected to be great. For example, as I use the NFL instagram account to check posts, it mentions the games that will be classics and every single channel of the games that are known for high attention as well which is impacted by a national televised non-prime time game while it is not the time for the playoffs. Honestly, I always like to break down what my score prediction per quarter I believe is going to be throughout my use of the NFL instagram account by itself as the specific post will say, “all eyes on this matchup.”
Additionally, I also like to use the NFL instagram account to check for primetime games that a lot of people believe will be an absolute epic game especially when I think that its going to be an enormous fourth quarter come down to the wire habit to prove why the battle was selected for primetime in a positive way.
Looking at an online platform named “Stat-muse” is my favorite hobby because it gives me good interpretation of how quarterbacks of the NFL fared with records against each team either on one team or multiple teams. I got into the hobby of looking at a platform named “Stat-Muse” because I really like to look at sports statistics of how players ended up doing individually per matchup in each season that is different from QB’s. However, it is impossible to find results of how athletes did in a matchup and season back in their college era on stat-muse.
Obviously, this stat-muse platform is the best link that I use to check NFL player statistics all the time from the past. As long as the stat muse platform is able to answer specific information about an NFL player against every team in all aspects of my search, it will give me a greater impact on the platform and help me a lot to continue to like the use.
Story Taken Via “NFL Game Day” Instagram platform
My favorite hobby is inserting an instagram story from the account named “NFL Game Day” because it illustrates that I really like using it to post results of summaries of game scoring with time remaining next to each scoring play under each quarter heading that happened within a current matchup. Basically, me putting Instagram stories from NFL Game Day allows me to type in the information of the final scoring summary per quarter via a text-box. In contrast, the specific NFL Game Day Instagram account does not display the final game scoring summary with its handwriting like it does with ESPN, Pro Football Reference, or StatMuse because there is no text box selection button present on those websites.
Using the fantasy statistics website is my favorite hobby because I really enjoy checking on how players of the NFL finished their position ranking from past seasons by its week individually. I got into hobby of looking at the fantasy statistics platform for the reason that it also enables me to click on different positions and different seasons which are other principles besides the individual week selection.
Other than PPR League, this fantasy statistics platform also allows me to access player fantasy points from a standard or half PPR league as well as changing at looks from individual week to full season. For example, I can change my access on the fantasy statistics platform to look at how players of each position did with points in PPR leagues, Standard leagues, and Half PPR Leagues in either individual weeks or full seasons from the 2020 season to the 2009 season and then from the 2009 season to the 2017 season.
My favorite hobby is viewing an online website named “pro football reference” because I am really into looking at all teams seasons from 2010 and start of when each NFL team existed and up to 2024 as well. I got into the hobby of looking at information of football from the “pro football reference” website because it acknowledges my evaluation of all boxscores among every single game. For example, when I click on previous seasons twice from the Dolphins 2010 Season, the pro football reference website will lead me to look at its 2008 season summary. Ideally, I feel that pro football reference is the best online platform for me to look at scores of all games of the NFL from the past because it gives me a very easy time of checking player and team stats with less pressure.
Another example of me using pro football reference is that when I click on boxscore it results me in getting a view of a few summaries from some of the Dolphins 2010 season games that include road against the Packers, home against the Lions, and home against the Titans. Moreover, I really like how the pro football reference website gives me the ability to look at previous game and past game as I take one season at a time.
This image of the ESPN college football logo is used to indicate that college football is my other favorite sport to watch besides the NFL. I got into the watching college football hobby because it brings my high entertainment to predict who will win a battle based on whether games are expected to be a blowout or one score game based on my individual understanding of the win chance probabilities. However, when I pay attention to one score game predictions throughout my hobby of watching college football, I always like to interpret on why I think the game can go either way when it comes to a matchup that is expected to go off on fire for both teams which always happens in most cases of watching college football as it is the same top battle every year. If a matchup series of college football continues to be a blowout every time its by one team against the same opponent, the battle will never become interesting to watch in the future.
More often in college football, any matchup that is going to be an absolute cinema likes to have total point scoring games of 65 or higher. For example, whenever I like to watch potential power conference championship game previews, I always keep my focus on whether or not the scoring will alternate between leads or ties multiple times throughout the matchup.
