Anthony,
I liked some of what you did and some other bits not so much. Let me elaborate.
I’m not sure what the status of your situation is, but it sounds like were in similar boats. You’ve been doing this kind of thing for some time and are struggling to get started in the business full time. Same here. I am getting ready to redesign my portfolio, as I realize this is part of my problem, but enough about me. Lets start talking about yours.
On first glance I would remove the box shadow from the nav bar, its been my experience that a flat nav generally is more eye pleasing. I am often finding myself in inner conflict over the notion of simplicity vs style. I liked the logo and call to action section, but its a lot of white, you might offset that with some color, or maybe some sort of sublte pattern? Then we move into the “what I do section”, I’m not crazy about the styling for your section header, h1 or whatever. The big white boxes could be better, but I really like what you did offsetting the three. That seemed unique and different. Same thing in the how I do it section. If I were you I would rewrite the about me. I can’t tell you what the best thing is to put in there, but I would definitely rewrite it. I have the same issue, where its hard to know what to say, but that is your chance to say I am someone that you should be interested in, not I am someone who will be a risk to you. Finally, the contact me section is just a button with a mailto: link attached. You could be a little more creative, but there are worse ways you could’ve done it. Also, I like what you did with the social media buttons.
The Work page. If I was a recruiter going to your site, the main focus of my visit would be to see your work, right? Well the way you have it setup, I almost missed it. If I hadn’t noticed the link in the nav, I would have missed it altogether. How about a jumbotron or the like with your work on it? You could include a work section to your first page and do something a little more reserved to display them than you did on the second page. You could have a “Showcase” section on your first page, demoing one project that links back to your secondary page with all your projects on it. Just throwing some ideas out there.
I do like that you stuck with your theming on this page and you’ve got a lot of great projects for showcasing. It is interesting that you haven’t found work yet. How long have you been coding now?
I enjoyed the blog section of your app. You had me at “listen. Morty”, as I am a huge fan of the show. Its a fair looking and functioning blog. Still a little heavy on the box-shadow property. Considering that there is only two posts, I won’t get into content, but I do encourage you to continue writing posts.
Overall, I think you have a fine site. Do I think it will get you any jobs? It might get you some attention, but it could definitely be polished. These are some things I have noticed. I hope any of it is helpful. Feel free to message me back about any of my critique.
