Lab 8 - Personal Professional Profile

Express yourself!

For this week-long lab, you will create a “Personal-Professional Profile”. It’s your chance to present yourself to future colleagues/employers/reporters/clients. This lab provides an opportunity to synthesize and reflect on the many topics we’ve covered in the course. To begin this project, we don’t provide any code (but may provide a git repository. Check your Canvas course), but of course you can pull from things you’ve read and or worked on previously.

Specs

1. Your profile should include multiple pages.
2. Across all the pages, your site should have:
   1. a consistent, non-default style. The guidelines for the final project would be a good starting place to check for basics.
      • it is permissible to start with third-party CSS such as bootstrap if you wish.
   2. a navigation menu that links to all the pages.
3. at least 3 pages:
   1. index.html - the landing page that briefly introduces you including at least:
      1. your name
      2. a picture of you or a placeholder image
      3. your professional status (e.g. undergraduate student)
   2. resume.html - targeted info for you to easily share with recruiters that has
      1. at least:
         1. a link to download a PDF of your resume
      2. optionally also:
         1. an html version of your resume right in the page
   3. about.html - a more detailed page about you that includes at least:
      1. a longer bio
      2. some sort of “personal”/humanizing info about yourself such as:
         • a list of your hobbies
         • a list of your favorite books, movies, or music
         • a list of your skills
