This Portfolio

A statically-generated portfolio built on modern React patterns and intentional motion design.

CONTEXT

A technical showcase and personal brand expression built with Next.js 16, React 19, Tailwind CSS 4, and motion.dev. Fully static export with zero runtime JavaScript dependencies.

THE TENSION

Portfolio sites often choose between technical impressiveness and genuine expression. Many are either overengineered showcases or basic templates that don't reflect the maker's capabilities.

APPROACH

Started with brand intent—warm, intelligent, quietly powerful—then selected technologies that could express that intent. Motion is used sparingly but with conviction. The architecture itself demonstrates systems thinking.

WHAT EMERGED

A portfolio that feels like the work it represents: considered, capable, and human.
