Hello, Beautiful human! I am excited to share that I am finally working on my portfolio site๐Ÿ’ƒ๐Ÿ’ƒ๐Ÿ’ƒ

Earlier this year, I decided I wanted a portfolio site. I went ahead to buy the domain name and didnโ€™t know what to do from there, till recently, I decided to start with a design. Nothing too fancy. Just someplace on the internet, I could call mine. It was gonna be a space that had all of me.๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

I know I tend to put my feet in all sorts of things and even though I have a medium account where I just wanna talk about my journey, I have Hashnode where I write about tech. Iโ€™ve been featured on some websites and aside from technical writing, I found a new love, UX writing.

Yes! I started UX writing by mistake๐Ÿ˜ƒ. I'll talk about this in a later article. But right now I can't help but drool over my beautiful portfolio design.

So, when I decided I wanted a website for myself, a website that spoke my words, style, and tone. I spoke to my best friend DaveMarz about it. About 4 days ago, we started the research, sketch, and finally got to the design stage.

Currently, we have a high-fidelity mockup. What is left to do is put the right words in the right places and start building in web flow.

I know this is going to be challenging since this is the first webflow project for David and a first personal project for me as a UX writer, but I trust his craft and I can't wait to see the beauty we can create.

However, it could get ugly and tiring๐Ÿ˜‚ but in all, I am positive that this excitement stays for good.

I'll keep you posted.
Happy Thursday or *insert the current date*๐Ÿ˜Ž
