The Portfolio Collective
🚀 Build & Launch Your Portfolio in Just 6 Weeks
Join The Portfolio Collective — a guided program and lifelong community for students, early-career professionals, and career changers ready to showcase their work with confidence.
What Is The Portfolio Collective?
Building a portfolio can feel overwhelming — where do you start, how do you present your work, and how do you actually launch it?
The Portfolio Collective is a 6-week, cohort-based program designed to take you from concept to live portfolio — with expert guidance, peer support, and accountability baked in.
You won’t just learn. You’ll ship your portfolio.
Program Timeline
-
To get started, we’ll have our first 1-on-1 so I can get to know your goals and help you strategize some initial steps.
This is a great week to look at inspiration sites, gather website content, or just think about which projects you’d like to include.
-
Every website needs some sort of site structure, which you’ll define early on so you’re not stuck redoing work later on.
Using the strategy we discussed in the first 1-on-1, define your site structure with necessary pages and start gathering the content you need.
Weeks 2-6: you’ll be paired with a new accountability buddy to catch up about your progress.
-
Building your personal brand might be the best part of this project! You want your website to reflect your personality, and there are some steps you can take to get there.
This is also a great time to define how you’ll build your website, whether fully coded, semi-coded, or not coded at all.
Weeks 2-6: you’ll be paired with a new accountability buddy to catch up about your progress.
-
Once you have a rough draft going, we’ll meet for the First Draft meeting to make sure you’re on the right track and aligned with both your goals and personal brand.
Weeks 2-6: you’ll be paired with a new accountability buddy to catch up about your progress.
-
From the first draft meeting, iterate on your project, finalize pages, and we’ll meet again for our Final Draft meeting before the portfolio showcase.
Weeks 2-6: you’ll be paired with a new accountability buddy to catch up about your progress.
-
If we haven’t met a third time, we’ll do that during this week for a final round of feedback and to ensure you’re ready for our group Portfolio Showcase.
This is an opportunity for your to share how far you’ve come with the rest of your cohort!
