This project marks my first published portfolio in2022, a milestone in my journey as a designer and developer. The goal was tocreate a website that felt straightforward yet playful, reflecting my ambitionto grow in the field while remaining relatable to my audience. The artdirection was intentionally modest, avoiding boastfulness, and instead focusingon authenticity and approachability.

The primary challenge was overcoming the initialhurdle of starting. Questions like“What colors should I use?”,“Howdo I introduce myself?”, and“Who is my target audience?”wereat the forefront. Despite the uncertainty, I decided to dive in. I chose asimple design with hints of playfulness, ensuring the website wasn’t overlypretentious. The focus was on letting users get to know me and understand my capabilities.
