Hi everyone,

My portfolio site is attached below. It’s not complete and needs tweaking, but here’s where I’m at. I expect to make improvements over the weekend. Thanks!

My Portfolio

I created my portfolio this summer when I applied for the internship. I have uploaded part of my works, including photography works and journalistic pieces.

This portfolio was originally created to showcase my work about a year ago, but I found that WordPress was more difficult to use and didn’t showcase my work as well as Squarespace. That said, I am excited to try again with WordPress now that I have more knowledge about HTML/CSS, a classroom full of peers and an instructor to give me feedback and advice on how to make it work for me.

What’s your story?

This is a pre-existing site I have been using off and on since about 2009 (I had a very hip high school English teacher who decided we should all have blogs.) Last fall, however, I was required to establish an online portfolio, and rather than beginning from scratch, I decided to renovate my WordPress site. I have thus removed all of the angsty 15-year-old-me writing (sorry, yall), and what you see here was built in the fall of 2015. Any (polite) feedback is most welcome.

I created my professional portfolio last fall with the help of Rebecca Burns. It is organized very specifically to help professionals navigate through my strengths and understand what I have to offer. I have just recently updated the image of my portfolio to more accurately express myself as a professional and to make it appear far sleeker than before. I am quite proud of my portfolio and am pleased with how far along I’ve brought it.

Katherine’s Portfolio

I started my portfolio this past summer, and I have added some of my previous work to the pages. I have used this site to display work done at my internships, held under the menu item “Off Campus”. Work linked to the menu item, “On Campus,” includes my previous substantial projects done in class and this is where work for this class will go. Most pages on my site are placeholders and need descriptions added. This semester, I need to work on adding the right amount of detail to all content I post on this site without it being too much for a potential job application.

After lots of trial and error with WordPress this weekend, the domain – maryannschroder.com – represents an initial phase.  I’m reasonably satisfied with the format and glad that everything “works” in terms of navigating.  There are only two items posted.  One is the “About” section and the other a piece under “Essays”.

I went by just the description in the syllabus of what a web portfolio should be (in addition to googling for some ideas, which did not prove particularly helpful).  I understand that it should be a place to display work for the purpose of promoting oneself professionally.  And that sounds good to me!  Although there is not much content as of yet, I look forward to adding more and to getting feedback about how to best present oneself.
