My very own resume! I'm very proud of this and yet upset with it at the same time. I personally love the design and I think it expresses who I am fairly well. The background is a stretched version of a thumbnail sketch I posted earlier, if you recognize it. I also incorporated the logo from my latest post. Because the logo is so large and catches the eye so well I thought it would be best to make my name smaller so as not to crowd the page. I'm a fan of negative space. The colors I thought were particularly great for representing who I am since I use those colors regularly and also wear them regularly. The yellow made me nervous so I chose it for the section with the darkest background. I'm hoping it isn't too painful to read. I kept the colors and the unusual font for the least important information. I want the body of the sections to be read more clearly than the headings of course!
My only fear for this was that it may not look professional or serious enough. Although my style is bold contrast and bright colors and angular forms, it may not be the usual prim and proper resume in the professional world. Granted, that could help my resume stand out among others, but it may stand out in a bad way. We'll see how it goes!
