New 2025 Portfolio Live!

My new portfolio is live — redesigned with a focus on clarity, usability, and flexibility. Upcoming updates will showcase UX/UI and E-Commerce projects.

After completing my 3-month UX/UI bootcamp, I realized that my old motion design portfolio wasn’t doing justice from a usability and UX perspective. It looked fancy, but navigating it wasn’t as smooth as it should be.

So, I decided to rebuild it. I chose a highly adjustable theme and tailored it with the skills I gained during the bootcamp — focusing on clarity, usability, and flexibility.

done is better than perfect
no perfectionist ever

It’s not 100% finished yet, but I’m trying to learn that done is better than perfect — a good antidote to my perfectionism.

Over the next weeks, I’ll be adding my E-Commerce and UX/UI projects to round out the portfolio.
