Nye's mission is to educate others about a wide range of scientific subjects. He does this by listening to the experts in those fields so he can pass on the most accurate and credible information possible (Nye, 2020).

Nye's tone throughout his personal website is upbeat and energetic (Nye, 2018). I can imagine him reading any one of the pages from his website with the same amount of energy that he would put into Bill Nye the Science Guy or Bill Nye Saves the World.

Right now, you and everything in the room where you are, is getting pulled down by gravity. If you don't believe it, push a book of your desk. It will go plummeting toward the center of the Earth. It's gravity. The Earth's mass, the stuff it's made of, creates gravity. It's pulling down on you and every other object you can see; it's even pulling down on the air and the ocean. Not only that, you and every atom of every thing around you has gravity. So, the objects and atoms are all, ever so slightly, pulling up on the Earth!

Without gravity, there would be no weight. When you step on a bathroom scale, the scale is getting squeezed between you and the Earth. The scale measures how strong this mutual attraction is. Gravity makes a force that pulls objects together.

Not only is gravity pulling on every atom and molecule of everything around us, it pulls over huge, gigantic distances. The planets are held in the orbits around the Sun by gravity. The Sun's mass and the mass of the Earth create enough gravity to hold us in orbit, even though we're 150 million kilometers away. The gravity for the Earth, all the other planets in our Solar System, and all the stars and galaxies in the Universe has been pulling steadily for billions of years.

Since gravity only pulls, and since gravity pulls on every speck of matter, when there's enough matter in one place like a planet or moon, gravity makes them form into a ball or sphere. The reason the Earth, the Moon, the Sun, Jupiter, Neptune, and Pluto are all round is that their own gravity pulls evenly in all directions at once.

Bill Nye pulls you into this show... with Gravity!

The Big Ideas

The Earth's gravity makes things have weight.

Gravity holds the Earth and other planets in orbit around the Sun.

Gravity makes the Earth, the Sun, and all the other planets round like a ball (spherical).

Did You Know That?

Gravity makes clusters of stars orbit quadrillions of kilometers apart for billions of years?

There's gravity in space, but if you stood on scale there you'd be weightless; there'd be nothing for the scale to rest on?

Spacecraft can use the gravity of distant planets to help pull them through space?

I really liked how Larkin chose to introduce herself to her clients and potential clients who are viewing her personal website right off the bat. On the first page you open on her website, the first sentence says, "Hi, I'm Ximena, a communication specialist and writer based in Chicago"  (Larkin, 2022).

Short Bio

My work revolves around creating and executing effective communication strategies. You've seen my clients in Buzzfeed, VICE, New York Times, Cosmo, Hypebeast and more.

My projects have gone viral and I'd like to think I'm just getting started. Take a closer at my portfolio and read what people say it's like to partner with me.

When not tackling client projects, I write about things I find interesting. I've contributed to Bustle, Food & Wine, New York, Entrepreneur, Brides, VICE, Munchies, Bitch, Atlas Obscura, The Independent, Forbes, Business Insider, Tasting Table, Refinery29 and more. All of my writing samples are available here.

PR Background

I'm the founder of C1 Revolution. Clients hire me because of my expertise in brand reputation and management (you can get a better sense of what that means over at the services page). Brand work includes Portillo's, Four Seasons Mexico City, Bank of America (2017, 2018 and 2019) Chicago Marathon, Nevermore Park, Flowers for Dreams and more.

Prior to starting C1, I worked on comms teams for Walgreens, DePaul University, MLB's Chicago White Sox and iHeart Media.

Being curious about the industry and how people successfully navigate the digital revolution led me to create #theRevolutionaries, an interview series tackling the topic, distributed by Entrepreneur.

And last, if you haven't guessed, I love coming up with wild ideas and bringing them to life. Here's two projects I'm particularly proud of: Harry Potter Yoga and #BarackingAround (they went viral within three months of each other).

Freelance Writing

In the last year I've published articles in Food & Wine, munchies, Atlas Obscura, New York Magazine, Bitch, Tasting Table and more. This has led people to ask if I've made a career switch from PR.

It's actually the other way around. I went into PR because I couldn't find a job as a writer when I graduated from DePaul with a Master's in Journalism (my undergrad degree is in communication). I tried writing back then and landed bylines with Refinery29, Chicago Sun-Times and Forbes. However, I wasn't ready to hustle the way I am today.

Through my PR work, I connected with Food52's Amanda Hesser who encouraged me to take up writing again. Today, I write a lot more. Not because I'm giving up PR, but because it's a different way to publicize the topics I care about. One feeds the other.

As a result, I'm better equipped to help clients. Being on the other side of pitches helps me understand how sharp my work needs to be in order to break through the noise.

Hear straight from the experts who are successfully navigating the digital revolution. All of which are based in Chicago. Subscribe to the C1 Revolution YouTube channel to be notified when new videos are posted.

I like how Larkin chose to make the titles of her pages a different color than black to help them stand out more (X. N. Larkin, 2021). I also like how she uses that same color to help the links she has provided for her viewers stand out more as well (X. N. Larkin, 2021). The contrast between the white, pink, and black and visually appealing.

Kaung uses mainly black and white on her entire website with just a few pops of colors splashed throughout which is very visually appealing to the viewer (Kuang, 2022). She also uses only one typeface throughout her personal brand website which helps to tie the entire site together (Kuang, 2022).

I  liked how Bobby Flay included a few images of himself and his family in the kitchen to help play up on the fact that he is a chef (Flay, n.d.). By selecting a few quality photos, they really help to hammer the fact that he has been in the kitchen cooking for decades now.

I took an unconventional path

Over three decades ago, with my GED in hand and a helping hand from a most generous restaurateur, I set out to learn a trade. I was a member of French Culinary Institute's first graduating class of 1984 and it was there I learned the fundamentals I so needed. That formal education and a three year stint with Chef Jonathan Waxman in the mid to late '80's are the two experiences I point to most when reflecting about how I got my start. They outfitted me with the confidence I needed to take my own shot.

Over the years, I've been able to play out my culinary dreams like an artist - approaching concepts that were speaking to me at that very moment. From the contemporary S outhwestern cuisine of Mesa Grill, to the the French-inspired American Brasserie menu of Bar Americain, the salty allure of Mediterranean ingredients at Bolo (and later Gato), a fresh approach to South Jersey Surf and Turf at Bobby Flay Steak, and a kitchen of new discovery that put South American chiles and peppers on my paint brush and fish as my canvas at Shark in Las Vegas: each has been a labor of true love and inspiration. I'm excited to see what happens next.
