All the designs (some complete and others incomple

All the designs (some complete and others incomplete) before I landed on my final portfolio site. Simple won out in the end, but I still love each one of these, and I learned A LOT along the way. #figma #adobexd #webdev #webdevelopment #uidesign #portfoliosite #javascript #darkmode #css3 #html5 #graphicdesign #webdesign #codebootcamp #codingbootcamp

At the end of the day I’m just going to type out LH in a serif font and stick it in a circle... why am I procrasti-torturing myself like this?

Interrupting the lettering to bring you a #widn po

Interrupting the lettering to bring you a #widn post. Inspired by @jennakutcher and a recent episode of @goaldiggerpodcast to share my journey, not just the destination.

I’m currently enrolled in a 12 week coding bootcamp— this is week 7: Design Week!!!!!!!! Does the number of exclamation points I used convey my level of excitement? I love design already, but I’m learning so many new things. Just really enjoying this time.

Our lab time yesterday was spent designing flat, material, and #skeuomorphic buttons in #figma
.
Interesting to play with Figma coming from an Adobe background. I definitely learned where some tools were hiding that I’d been looking for!
.
Swipe to see what’s happening to my L key when I put it on a website with the figma-generated code. Technically I already made a few adjustments to the styling, but come on, L- I believe in you. Plz move ur @$$ onto that button. 👏👏👏
