Wordpress Portfolio Website

THE PROJECT

I successfully created my personal portfolio website using WordPress, showcasing my work and skills in a clean, professional layout. I chose the OwneWP theme for its modern design and customization flexibility, which allowed me to build a site that reflects my personal brand. To enhance user interaction, I integrated a popup "Hire Me" window using plugins, making it easy for potential clients or employers to reach out directly. The project demonstrates my ability to set up and customize WordPress themes and plugins to build a functional, visually appealing portfolio.
