Joseph's Presentation

I liked Joseph's presentation because, his presentation was unique. It presented his personality, like in one slide it showed a person laying down... That simply shows he's pretty lazy. And also it shared a little bit of background information. His family is in to the Medical Field. He says he's interested into that too. Also all of his colors matched nicely, like red, white, and blue together. It was the best I have seen so far, in my opinion.
