I am happy to announce that the job search was successful this year! 😄
As such, the purpose of my website has changed a bit-- I can now omit things that employers care about, and focus solely on showcasing all the fun things I'm proud of making.
This year's design was a step back from the flashy animations and colorful highlights. I carried out the design process with the intention of creating a site that's snappy, simple, and easy to build upon in future iterations. Right now, I don't need a cool site- I'd rather let my work speak for itself.
In terms of structural changes, the site now uses Gatsby! I probably don't need that amount of power for such a simple website, but it was worth the experience. Onto Hugo next time!
