I wasn’t too sure what exactly I should put on it since I don’t really make anything (portfolio) that would require me to show off to get a job (I work in legal lol). But I still went ahead and built it so I could say I have a site since it seems that everyone here in the valley has one. It may not be fancy or the coolest but it is a start. I am sure not many guys in legal have even a simple website like mine. I will keep browsing to get more inspiration and maybe throw in some pics I take once I get my Sony A7ii.
One thing I did learn from all this was using a proxy to purchase the domain. On the ICANN look up you can see all your information if you don’t use a proxy. Luckily I got that sorted right away as I would hate to call spam calls for a cellphone number that I have had now for over 13 years.

Need to pace myself with all these projects.
Lastly, Google and Youtube are Godsend when it comes to learning on your own. How the hell did we get things done before?! I still remembe
