I read for my class her book "If I live to be 100: Lessons from the Centenarians" and I really like, but after listening to her yesterday everything she does looks great.

This is part of the paper I wrote for my class talking about her visit:
I really like her speech this morning. She looks very interested in our opinion and in our questions. All her answers sounded very sincere and in my case they were very helpful.
“You have to know what you are selling, what do they need, what do you know and what can you offer to whom,” said Ellis to a question about who buys freelance work. I was impressed because she decided to change her job when she had almost everything at NPR to be a freelance.
I think her experiences writing the book "If I Live to Be 100” were very important in her life. When she told about the people she interviewed, as in the case of Anna Wilmot when she showed her picture, it seems like she really love this person, and a special relation has growth between them.
I think she is a good example for us. Not just because she is the prototype of journalist that all media wanted now: she has experience, she travel a lot, she knows how to do interviews.
But also she has the view to do more things that just questions. She knows how to record the sound, edit it, take pictures, write a book, develop a web page, etc.
