Lam's Portfolio

Tech Used

  • Notion & Github - for project management
  • Figma - for wireframes
  • Adobe Illustrator - for design assets
  • DrawKit & Undraw - for beautiful, customizable illustrations
  • NextJS + ReactJS - framework
  • Chakra-UI - for styling and general UI
  • Pure React Carousel - by Express Labs

General Approach

The purpose of this project was to showcase my work relating to software development in addition to the writing/research I've done within the past two years.

The goal is to present myself as a creative, capable analyst developer who has great care for collaboration, details, and digital transformation as it relates to international development.

User Stories

MVP

As a user, I want to be able to:

  • see a landing page before I can read more
  • see a sticky navbar with a menu of the apps pages
  • see a smooth, visually appealing display of the projects and research papers
  • see a contact section with relevant information

STRETCH

As a user, I want to be able to:

  • use a carousel/gallery of sorts to see details of just one project at a time
  • read more about other works beyond web applications
  • connect using a contact form that directs message to an inbox
  • see tasteful animations that doesn't distract from the contact
  • download the resume directly from the app

Major Hurdles & Unsolved Problems

Presenting visually appealing data is a top priority for me as I developed this portfolio. I scoured the net for the best carousel component as I found Chakra-UI to lack a component that was as flexible and customizable as I would like.

My next step is to optimize for mobile users and improve the responsiveness of the app.
