Name your file “Presentation #_Last Name”. Your presentation number is listed next to your title on the agenda. For example, Janna Pecquet’s presentation is #1 on the agenda, so the file name should be 1_ Pecquet.
You should also bring your presentation on a USB drive in case there are any issues with your uploaded version.
