Your navbar should use white as a color for your text, it's easier to read than black text on a dark background. I would also remove your face from the navbar because two pictures of you should be enough, since you don't want to be hired for your looks but your skills ;)

Your use of animations is a little too much if you ask me, it's better to use it more sparingly. I also noticed that you tried to make purple your primary color in your design, but I don't really think this color matches the landing page and your personality based on what I have read about you. Therefore, I advise you to give a little more thought about your color palette. For this you can use coolers, that's what I frequently visit first when I start a new project.

This is also very subjective, but I don't think much of these GitHub stats that have been popping up all over the place. Commits per year or lines of code are insufficient metrics to evaluate the value you could create for your future employer, let's not make this a thing in 2021. What's important should be the final product, i.e. your projects.

This brings me to my last point - I'd prioritize the projects you have been working on over any certificates. Consider moving up this section by one level.

In summary, your page is a solid start but now's the time where you need to start pay attention to details, e.g. the projects cards are not centered on your mobile view, your contact form could also use more margins on the same view (it's too close to the page borders, giving your form less room to breathe).
