Hey everyone! This is my submission for the @squarespace challenge on @contra 🎨
The goal was to build a website using Squarespace's new Finish Layer tools—and, coincidentally, I was already looking for a no-code platform to build my portfolio when I discovered Squarespace.
Building this website was an amazing experience, and it's officially becoming my new portfolio website!

In the videos below, I show the homepage, the portfolio overview, and one of my branding case study pages, explaining the reasoning behind each animation decision in the website's construction.
And here are the links to my X ( Old Twitter) and LinkedIn posts.
To make the experience more engaging, I used "Block Animations" to gradually reveal content as visitors scroll, helping guide their attention instead of overwhelming them with information all at once.
I also used "Pin Blocks" on the project pages to keep the project description visible while the images scroll beside it, making the storytelling much easier to follow.
One of my favorite effects is the "Zoom" scroll animation, which adds depth and movement to key sections without distracting from the content. Throughout the site, I balanced subtle entrance animations with persistent scroll effects to create a polished browsing experience while keeping the interface clean and intuitive.
The result is a six-page portfolio with four featured projects, designed to showcase my work while creating a smooth, engaging user experience from the first scroll to the final contact section.
Hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed building it!

So clean... amazing work
Earlier this year, I redesigned my portfolio site into my own personal digital home! The idea was to infuse personal elements into my professional world, and create something beautiful, functional, and easy to navigate.
I've moved my portfolio site around to different platforms over the years, but this time around I landed on Squarespace. I used their new block transform and block animation features to create some movement and interest, particularly on the home page of the site.
Finish Layer, along with other Squarespace design features, helped me create a site that I'm super proud of and a site that earns me business, all with minimal code.
