Digital Humanities

Your site looks great overall, Nik; I especially like the way that the theme you chose makes navigation easy, and I like the icons that you used to demarcate the different sections (ie “Projects,” “Service,” etc.)

Your site requires an editorial eye, though, as there are a lot of typos and grammatical errors. As this is your professional “signature” in the digital world, you’ll want to revise these issues to make your site look more professional. For example, under “Digital Projects,” you provide a caption beneath the video project that reads “I created a short video to showcase the Native American youth suicide in the United States.” The phrase “the Native Americna youth suicide” is vague and syntactically awkward; can you be more specific, or can you smooth out the syntax here?

Aside from a handful of these types of errors, though, this site reads nicely and is engagingly designed.

Nik, I found your website functional and pleasing to the eye first and foremost. The theme that you’ve chosen coupled with an obvious personal touch and attention to detail really shows. The first thing I noticed was the way you’ve organized the content both at the top and as a sort of permanent home page on the first page. I naturally gravitated to the links to other pages in the center with the photos, but it’s nice that it’s readily available at the top of the page as well.

As for the content itself that you featured, I think it perfectly toes the line of being appropriate for a potential employer or other professional contact while being personal enough to not read like a resume. The nested links under the service tab allow for more real estate for pictures and links within about the Organizations themselves, which is a nice touch.

I wish I had more genuine criticism for you, but you truly did an excellent job on the site. Perhaps the links tab is a little superfluous on a personal website, but if the goal is ease of use that’s perfectly understandable. Best of luck on your future endeavors.
