Your portfolio sounds super impressive / comprehensive so I feel like the work would just speak for itself with a simple website builder (that wouldn't require your having to maintain it)? Every time I've tried to create a comprehensive CV, coded from scratch, I've regretted it lolol.
Here's my portfolio / cv site that I created with carrd.co: ria.run
:)
Hi Ria! Thanks for sharing your portfolio, you may have actually inspired me to look further into carrd and see if maybe I can just publish updates there.
Could I achieve what I'm looking for with something more simple? Absolutely. But the truth is that I don't need a portfolio to market myself either. My interest of late in publishing a portfolio was to use it as an exercise in implementing a background worker process. I've done a lot of SaaS feature work, but I never got around to background processes before I moved on from an individual contributor role.
Beyond wanting to scratch that itch, I'm all for KISS with the rest of the stack.
Oh man, that’s sick. What about it gives you that itch exactly? I’ve gotten a different itch lately —to get back to the tech side from this marketing role. Lol.
I'm coming up on 2 years since I moved from an IC role into management and I haven't had many consulting opportunities of late due to covid and cancer.
Now that we're getting beyond the pandemic and my health has stabilized, it's time to shake off the rust and get back to the hustle I had previously, scratching this itch is practice for invoicing someone else for a similar job

ria.run looks amazing! congrats, I loved the experience (of browsing it).
I love yours too Ria. Was that a template? It's very beautiful...what tech stack did you use?
Check out carrd.co! I think it's probably the cleanest UI I've ever seen in a site builder. That anti-aliasing is on point! 👌
Love your microcopy under "Curriculum Vitae"

I enjoy that you're so chill about being inspiring AF.
