This is based on the Jekyll theme Minimal Mistakes.
The purpose of the site is to enable and/or facilitate
- Professional marketing -- Having a site where I have my résumé with all professionally relevant work, project and other experiences, knowhow and skillsets described as well as any references listed that I have accumulated can be very effective when marketing one's self professionally. I can link relevant pages to my LinkedIn, job applications, business card, and/or other marketing material as well as refer to it in speech or when messaging.
- Social marketing -- Having a site where people can learn about who I am, what I do and like, and how to contact me can be very useful for people. As with professional marketing I can similarly link this to my social media profiles and/or spread it in other ways.
- Blogging -- When I feel like writing about something, I can do so publicly at my personal website and potentially share the posts to wherever I like for example to leverage network effects in social media platforms.
- Sharing -- I can add custom pages or content whenever I have a need to do so.
- Extendability -- If someday I have the drive, I can always choose to expand the site and perhaps, along the years, it will grow and I will enjoy seeing it do so.
The overall plan of the site is as follows:
| URL | Purpose |
