Before you start building your portfolio site, it's important to gather all the information you want to include. This includes your professional experience, your education, your portfolio pieces, and your contact information. It's essential to have a clear idea of what you want to include so that you can plan out your site structure accordingly.

Step 2: Plan your site structure

Once you have all the information you need, it's time to plan out your site structure. This involves deciding on the layout and design of your site, and how you want to present your information. You can start by sketching out a rough layout on wireframe.cc, and then fine-tune it as you go along.

When writing this content, it's important to make sure it's concise, clear, and easy to read. You can use ChatGPT to help you with this process, as it has the ability to generate human-like text that can help you create content that is professional and engaging.
