Welcome!

This feels like it's been a long time coming.

During college I wasn't really that into web development, but I felt a portfolio site was something that I should have at some point. At the time I didn't really have anything to really put on it so it'd be like building a bookshelf without owning any books, so I put it off.

Years passed, and while I had started to build my portfolio, the idea of having a website was pushed to the back of my mind because of my day job and every day life.

At the start of this year, I enrolled in a Full Stack Developer course from Udacity and I finally acquired the skills needed to check this off the list, so here we are!
I always have a long list of things I need to do, and sometimes years pass but I always get the things on that list done eventually.

I decided to base my website's design on my revamped CV from the start of 2019. Before then I thought my resume looked kind of boring. (I guess in hindsight, it still is a little boring)

But the point is, I wanted to add a splash of character. I find it a lot more visually appealing than it used to be and I matched my current website to it because consistency is pretty neat.

I frankensteined the backend and frontend from what I was taught in the Udacity course, some Bootstrap that I applied during my Ruby on Rails tutorial binge and random tutorials from w3schools and I can't say I'm disappointed with the result.
Naturally I'll continue to work on this site on and off, and I'll eventually sculpt it into something more exciting as my design work gets more sophisticated, but I like to think this is a good place to start (though I'll probably come back in the next few days to spruce some things up if I find some time).

But either way, thanks for sticking around.
