This week’s Makeover Monday topic was based on an article attempting to provide analysis into why it is harder for people to correctly pick their March Madness brackets.

Makeover Monday Week 10 – Top 500 YouTube Game(r) Channels
We’re officially 10 weeks into Makeover Monday, which is a phenomenal achievement. This means that I’ve actively participated in recreating 10 different visualizations with data varying from tourism, to Trump, to this week’s Youtube gamers.

#MakeoverMonday 11/22/16 – Advanced Logging Edition
And it’s time – my first ever Makeover Monday. I’ll admit, I’ve attempted to catch up in the past, but always lost steam. I think the first data set might be related to sports and I struggle to focus on making something interesting. Despite my follies, I’m proud to say that I’ve participated in this…
