IMHO you did a great job in general Brian. The only thing I see a bit off is the resume section. That embedded frame is weird, and for some reason I had a flash back to the 90's and java applets. I'd change that section for something more personal, present yourself and let people know you. And a simple link for your resume is enough in my opinion.
That's the only thing it comes to mind to add something useful, like I said, it's pretty cool already.
EDIT: Few more things! From a UX point of view, make the screens captures or the whole card clickable, you don't want your users wandering their mouse around looking for where the hell do they have to click! That, or make more obvious what parts of your web implies action. Never take for granted that it's obvious. Check material.io/design/components/butt... A lot better explained than myself.
Another thing is to avoid redundancy. You have the project title link and a live site link pointing to the same place. Why two links pointing to the same place with different formats? Just choose one and make it very clear that those are actionable places in your web.
Florian, thank you SO SO much for your suggestions.
I actually implemented both of them in my latest build. Resume now is a link that opens in a new tab and the project cards now have action buttons to make it obvious for users.
Wow that was really fast! One last thing I'd probably keep both bottons toggether, but I'm a bit obssesed with little details (old graphic design habits).

All in all, pretty good job! 👏
I'm still training my eye for the design parts of Front End Development. So, this is super helpful.
