The worst time to update your portfolio? The moment you ?need? it. Because let’s be real: ????No one updates their portfolio when they’re comfortable. ????It’s always in a rush. ????Always under pressure. ????Always just before a big opportunity. That’s why keeping it ?fresh? all year long is the move. Less stress. Less scrambling. More confidence when it matters. I’ve seen some great posts about portfolios from creators I really respect. So I pulled together a round-up of my favorites, check them out: ?? Aneta Kmiecik’s 500 studied UX portfolios later… https://lnkd.in/gf9gKDDt ??
