Personal web portfolio: a career that adds up

A CV in a PDF is a list. A web portfolio is a story. For Tjaša Medved, a head of processes and organisation with more than twenty years in controlling, we at Studio ME2D.si designed and built a personal website that presents a career the way a person would tell it, not a form.

See the site at tmpresentation.me2d.si.

Design that grows out of the profession

Controlling is a world of numbers, rows and columns that have to add up in the end. We took that literally. The career is shown as a table: each row is one role, the right-hand column counts the years, and at the bottom it all adds up to 25 years with a tick that says it balances.

The palette is warm and calm: a cream background, near-black type and a single strong red-orange accent. Numbered sections ([01] to [05]) and a typewriter-style font give the feel of a well-kept report, while large headlines add personality.

From numbers to people

The home page introduces the person with a photo, role and short intro, with quick links to career, life outside work and contact. The “Who I am” section opens with a large typographic headline, “From numbers to people”, with a photo set into it, followed by education, expertise and leadership experience.

A person outside the office too

A good portfolio shows not only what someone can do, but who they are. The “Outside the office” section, with photos of climbing, roller skating, cycling and nature, says more than a “hobbies” line on a CV.

Details you notice only when you use it

• Bilingual: the whole site is in Slovenian and English.
• Section navigation: the button in the top right always shows which section you are in, and the bottom bar shows how far you have read.
• Contact form: an employer or colleague can write directly from the site.
• Built for phones: on a smaller screen the layout becomes a single column without losing its character.

Do you need a web portfolio too?

A personal web portfolio is more modern and personal than a classic CV. You can send the link to an employer, add it to LinkedIn or put it in your email signature. We build them for specialists, managers, creatives and anyone who wants people to get to know them before they meet. Let's talk.
