Personal Portfolio (This Site)

Problem

I wanted a personal site that clearly represented how I think and work, without the overhead or performative polish of most developer portfolios.

Constraints

• Limited time alongside job search and other commitments
• Desire to avoid over-designing or premature abstraction
• Content needed to evolve over time without rewrites

Approach

I used Next.js App Router with a minimal component set and clear content structure. I prioritized readable code, explicit routing, and honest copy over visual complexity, treating the site as a living project rather than a static artifact.

Outcome

The result is a clean, flexible foundation that I can iterate on gradually. It already supports case studies, writing, and future expansion without needing structural changes.

What I’d improve

I plan to deepen individual project write-ups, add writing over time, and potentially introduce light visual enhancements once the content matures.
