Update Portfolio Website

Inspiration

During the "Building a unique portfolio part 1" event, I received very helpful feedback on how to improve my site. Ryan, the workshop's host, provided detailed suggestions with reasons behind those suggestions on how to improve the site including:

bringing the two sidebar elements to the left side of my site
adding a border to the project item elements to distinguish one project from another
rounding out corners for softer designs
adjusting the width of text to the optimal <80 characters line and more. I really appreciate the feedback that inspired this redesign, thank you!

What it does

My portfolio website showcases who I am, my experiences, projects, and technical skills.

Challenges we ran into

I built off my existing github.io website and went through the suggestions one by one. Going outside of the suggestions, I really wanted to add the functionality to filter out relevant work experiences in case there are people who are looking for specific items. My main challenge was refactoring a function I used in a past project to make it work for my current information. I wasn't sure how to organize my work data and ended up going through a couple of iterations of data organization before I landed on my desired one. For example, I decided to include relevant links at the end of the responsibilities instead of within the text.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

I'm proud of the way I rearranged the navbar to the left of the info bar because I took it a step further and added the functionality to hide my info bar with a css transition. It's my start to animating things on websites.
