Insights
I noticed a common theme and saw that many portfolio sites included simple layouts, brand logos, and navigation, with links to previous work experiences. A readable font and heading hierarchy were equally important.

Insights
When designing my wireframes, I created individual pages where I could showcase my current and previous bodies of creative content. I also decided to include my social media links in the site footer, so users could dive deeper into older bodies of creative work.
