THE ORIGINAL PORTFOLIO · BUILT ON WIX

A NOTE ON THE PROCESS

Not my forte.
Still worth it.

I'm not going to lie, web design/UX is definitely not my forte. But I was determined to create something I was proud of, so I turned to WIX and gave it my best shot.

It was definitely a journey. I put in over 100 hours getting the content and layout just right, and I even had to start from scratch a few times because I wasn't completely satisfied with the results. And let's not forget the numerous coffee breaks I took to fuel my efforts, as well as a few heated arguments with my girlfriend (which I won't mention because, let's be honest, they weren't exactly pleasant).

But despite the challenges, I'm really happy with how this turned out. I hope you enjoy it, it was definitely an investment (in both time and sanity). And who knows, maybe it'll even yield the best return in the end.

2026 update I also used AI as an extra tool to help make UI changes to the site, while keeping my own content and direction at the center.
