Your Favorite Nerd – Creating and Maintaining a Blog with Ian Shea

On November 10, Methuen resident and NECC alumnus, Ian Shea spoke with students and faculty about the process of launching and maintaining a blog. Shea graduated from NECC in 2015 with a degree in General Studies but decided to return and work towards a degree in Liberal Arts: Writing Option. In 2019, Shea launched his own website called www.yourfavoritenerd.com where he writes reviews of TV shows and movies, with occasional interviews and opinion pieces. Shea started this site because he loves having discussions on all aspects of nerdy pop culture. Whether it’s a video game, comic book, TV show, or movie, chances are he has an opinion about it! Shea is a child of the 90s, a New England native, and obviously, a proud nerd.
