The About page frames the developer’s background as an RPG character sheet — a deliberate design choice that makes an unconventional career path (healthcare → software) feel like a feature rather than a footnote. The left sidebar presents stats in a game-UI format while the right column gives honest, personal prose about the transition. Together they communicate personality and competence at the same time.Documentation Index

Page Layout
The page uses a flex container (flex flex-col md:flex-row gap-8) that stacks vertically on mobile and switches to a side-by-side layout on medium screens.
Left Sidebar — VITAL_STATS.dat
The sidebar is w-full md:w-64 flex flex-col gap-6 shrink-0 — 256px wide on desktop, full-width on mobile.
VITAL_STATS.dat RetroWindow
A lime-coloredRetroWindow titled VITAL_STATS.dat renders an RPG-style stat block in font-mono text-sm:
| Field | Value | Color |
|---|---|---|
| Class | Frontend Developer | text-y2k-lime |
| Subclass | Former Nurse | text-white |
| Base | Earth, Probably | text-white |
| Alignment | Chaotic Good | text-y2k-magenta |
| Currently | Debugging Reality | text-y2k-cyan animate-pulse |
animate-pulse to give the impression of an active status indicator.
Sidebar Stickers
Three<Sticker> components are stacked below the window in a flex flex-col gap-3 items-center container:
Right Column — Bio and Observations
The right column isflex-1 space-y-8.
ABOUT_ME.txt Heading
The section opens with anh1 styled as a terminal filename, with a bottom border acting as an underline:
Biography Paragraphs
Three prose paragraphs are rendered inside aprose prose-invert container for consistent font-sans typography with relaxed line-height:
Paragraph 1 — Origin
I didn’t start out writing code. I started out taking blood pressures, managing retail inventory, and trying to figure out why the hospital’s scheduling software looked like it was built in 1994.Paragraph 2 — The Connection
Turns out, triage in an emergency room and debugging a complex React application require the exact same skillset: stay calm, isolate the problem, and apply the fix before everything crashes. The only difference is that when a server crashes, nobody bleeds. (Usually.)Paragraph 3 — The Pivot
I pivot into web development because I realized I loved building the tools more than I loved using the broken ones. Now, I specialize in building interfaces that are highly functional, accessible, and occasionally, a little bit weird.
THINGS_I_NOTICE.log RetroWindow
A purpleRetroWindow titled THINGS_I_NOTICE.log follows the bio. It contains a <ul> in font-mono text-sm text-gray-300:
Customization
Editing the Bio Paragraphs
The three biography paragraphs are hardcoded JSX strings inside the About component. Edit them directly:Updating VITAL_STATS
The stat fields are hardcoded<div> elements inside the VITAL_STATS.dat window. Update the text content of any value — for example, change "Frontend Developer" to "Full-Stack Developer" or update "Debugging Reality" to reflect your actual current focus. To add a new row, copy an existing <div> block and add it to the space-y-4 container.
Updating the Stickers
The three stickers in the sidebar accept any string as children and support the following color values:"magenta", "cyan", "lime", and "white". Rotation is in degrees (positive = clockwise, negative = counter-clockwise). Replace the label text to match your own personality.
Updating THINGS_I_NOTICE
Add or remove<li> elements from the unordered list inside the purple RetroWindow. Keep entries short and observational — they work best as dry one-liners.
