The site is beautifully made and it showcases Helen Tran as a person as well as her professional skills and accomplishments as a designer. That's exactly what I want from a portfolio.
It's literallyherfuckingname.com - she can put as many images, videos, and stories of herself as she sees fit. We need MORE of this "ego" and "vanity"(see: self-confidence) in the industry - ESPECIALLY from women. The work is important, but the PERSON is so, so much more important. Granted, there's an art to doing this in a refined and professional manner - or you risk coming off as a self-centered boob, but the human being behind the work is ultimately who I care about.
Woo boy. Total cesspool in here.
