It's the end of an era. From 2001 to 2019, I have been set on this journey to discover and learn how this insane and massive world works from many mentors and instructors to new people who would eventually become my longtime friends. It's very much a nostalgic feeling, reminiscing on all of these fantastic experiences that I have encountered while on this journey.

Producing a television show can come easily to those with practice, which makes sense. Those people understand what certain elements to budget, modify, or strip away in order for the show to run successfully. As for me, this past year, I was given my first opportunity to be a sole producer on my very own live television broadcast, Smash for the Ages.

From students to faculty and staff, the Lawrence Herbert School of Communication filled with over 100 dedicated people preparing to cover the biggest event of November, the 2018 Midterm Elections. There was the sight of the complex mechanical cogs-and-gear operation, Hofstra Votes LIVE, the first ever live, multi-platform Election Night broadcast, simulcast from our news-based program, Hofstra Today and 88.7 FM WRHU Radio Hofstra University.

First and foremost, I must strictly address that without attempting to be too political on the matter, this will only be a reflection on my experience participating in preparation for the event and nothing more. I wish not to offend anyone with varied thoughts and opinions on said event as I only want to show my gratitude toward those who gave me this wonderful opportunity. With that out of the way, all right. Let's get started!

Hello. My name is Nicholas Koumis. This is my website's first blog post. I have so many thoughts and opinions on the world we live in, as well as so much news, updates, and stories on their way. I may talk about my experiences, something I am passionate about, or just talk to you guys on anything that comes to my mind.
