Personal Portfolio v1

April 2015

Here is a snapshot of personal and school projects I've worked on.

Personal Portfolio Website v1

Tools Used:
- Sketch
- Paper by FiftyThree
- HTML, CSS, Javascript

Problem:
The goal was to have a digital portfolio consisting of personal and school projects to include in my resume. I wanted to design and develop my own website instead of using Bootstrap to practice wireframing and apply the HTML and CSS I had been learning.

Solution: 
A minimalistic portfolio website that showcased the projects in my portfolio and interest in design.

Implementation: 
I created a multiple wireframes of different landing pages using the Paper iOS app to help decide on how I wanted users to interact with my site and before making mockups in Sketch. In order to stand out from the other single page, continuous scroll websites I had seen, I used Javascript to change the content of the different "pages" when each button was pressed. To further enforce the minimalistic personal branding I was looking to have, I designed my own logo and icons using Sketch.
