And this is why we go to college...


So I checked out the blog “My Last Portfolio Sucked, Yours Might Too” and it actually freaked me out a bit. Not because I thought the post was wrong, but because it made me paranoid that I had done something awkward or irritating in my own portfolio.

However, on the bright side, I like to stick to a typical 8.5 x 11” landscape PDF, which is pretty easy in terms of navigation. I’m also in the process of revamping my layout so it’s even cleaner and simpler than before, which should help “direct” my viewer toward the items I want to feature most.

I think most of my “room for improvement” is actually the content of the portfolio itself—a dilemma for which there is no quick-fix. It takes years of study, projects, and hard work to build a portfolio, and… oh wait, that’s what college is for.
