How to create your first UX design portfolio website

I’ll be walking you through a step-by-step process on how you can create a portfolio in less than an hour. This is the portfolio I created right out of my UX bootcamp and it's the same portfolio that helped me land my first full-time job as a UX designer in just 1 month. UX Bootcamps generally won't teach you how to actually create your portfolio website, and so I hope this video comes in handy for you!

Not even kidding but after watching this video I stepped away from about a week of pulling my hair out trying to build my portfolio in a really overcomplicated way. I signed up for Wix and spent about 2 hours total building my portfolio EXACTLY how I designed on Figma, and *sigh of relief*. Big Thanks, Christine! 🥳

Because of this video I was finally able to create my own website

This was dope. I just interviewed for a UX Design 6 month project at Google because I want to switch career paths from technical to design. I got it! I'm so excited. I am currently a data center technician at Google. I'm also taking the UX Coursera Design Course. I have three degrees that are not design-relevant. But, I did start out in graphic design and just freelanced, later. Sadly, I already paid for Squarespace. I just haven't built it out, yet.

Watching your channel has pushed me to pursue my passion for UX finally! I'm currently taking the Google certification course and I am honestly happier with this career change. Thank you for inspiring me! ❤

[KalvinNi]

Thank You! I been searching for this video for over 1 week!!!

I just finished Google's UX Design Certification, they did explain how to do a proper case study and create a portfolio website. However, your video has been very helpful in helping me enhance my portfolio! Thanks!

Your voice is so calm and relaxing, I love watching your videos! ❤️

Thank you so much for this video. I just finished the first part of my UX/UI course, and already have a project to show and I wanted to start looking for a job. I have been stressing out a lot with building the portfolio but this video really helped.

The amount of time I wasted trying to get my webflow pages to work.. I then switched to framer and am having trouble scaling everything to mobile. You made this look so easy, it gives me hope that 3rd times a charm!! Thank you!

I graduated as Web design and New Media. My final project needed to code my own website, OMG that was a nightmare!! After watched your video, I’m going to create a new one for my portfolio website.

[oceanskyy]

Im not even an aspiring UX designer, I just LOVE your content!

[demia]

I love your videos I’m a marketing major and instead of doing a marketing internship I’m gonna try to do UI/UX instead I went to general assembly last year

[chelseachinniah]

talk about perfect timing. I subscribed to your channel a while ago and just started looking for a video like this a few days ago. And lone behold, just yesterday you post the EXACT video that I was looking for:)

[claubittar]

Honestly your content is GOOD!!!! I am so glad i found it! I’m a graphic designer and now trying to migrate into UX/UI, and this channel is incredibly helpful!!!! Thank you so much! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[emmaskillings]

Your videos are the best!! So much helpful info. I'm currently taking Springboard's UI/UX bootcamp and they're great about guiding you through creating case studies and a portfolio website, but seeing a firsthand example is soooo helpful <3

Your content is so good. As someone with a good amount of visual design skills, moderate figma/xd skills, and social and marketing experience (just like you!), but no traditional bootcamp/course or work experience, you literally have given me the confidence to pursue this career. Your videos have the perfect information and have filled all of the gaps in my confidence that I've been questioning. Our previous careers and experience line up which makes it super relatable for me :). I've designed passion project websites in the past, but never for actual work. One day I joined one of those Live Adobe XD daily challenges and participated in a few weeks of classes amongst thousands of other students and my designs were repeatedly shouted out time after time in the top 3 for each project. I had some life changes after that and put learning product design on the back burner, not thinking I'm made for this career. I keep thinking I'm not capable of this career, but you keep reminding me that I am.

Big THANK YOU from South Korea. I just graduated last week and started to work on making UX portfolio. Your vid helps me a lot.

[victoriamaria]

Thank you Chun Buns! Because of your inspiring channel, i'm halfway through a ux design academy (DesignLab), about to begin creating my first portfolio! :)

Would love to see a video about your process with case studies. What details to include or exclude.
