Why I made this new portfolio?
When creating this portfolio, I was looking for a solution that was more in line with my personal design style: clean, organized, and efficient. I wanted my portfolio to not only highlight my technical skills, but also convey clarity and professionalism in a way that was easy to navigate and pleasing to recruiters and colleagues. Previously, I felt that my portfolio did not fully represent my ability to create exceptional user experiences, so this new version better reflects my design philosophy and skills as a product design expert.
