✨ Why Notion as an Online Portfolio

  • Looks aesthetic without any tech or design skills
  • Extremely easy to edit and keep up-to-date
  • Easy to share link and mobile optimized view
  • You can check analytics if you have hosting on Super, Potion, or Popsy
 

📄 My Online Portfolio

 

✅ Takeaways from Kavir’s session on PM Portfolio:

 
  • Focus on the impact you’ve had, what action led to that impact, under what context
  • Show, don’t tell: include rich media — tweets, images, videos, audios, links
  • Add your work experience, side projects, and other creative work
  • Embed case studies of teardowns or deep dives
  • Use elements like callouts, toggles, and galleries to make the portfolio more aesthetic
  • Add a section with quick links for seamless navigation
