Building a résumé that comes alive
June 22, 2026
The idea
People know how to read a résumé. They do not necessarily know how to navigate yet another bespoke personal website. So this site keeps the familiar surface of a résumé — name, summary, experience, projects, publications — and hides the interesting parts until you interact with it.
What’s hidden
- Hover over almost anything and it reacts: section underlines draw themselves in, skills light up, and a spotlight follows your cursor across the cards.
- Click a project, a research note, or a post and it expands in place into a short preview — no page reload, no losing your spot. The full write-up is one more click away.
- Everything stays calm and printable at rest, so it still works as a plain résumé when that’s all someone wants.
Why
Most of my work is about explainability — making models legible to the people who have to trust them. A résumé has the same problem in miniature: a wall of bullet points rarely communicates what the work actually felt like. Letting each entry open up on demand is a small attempt at the same goal.
This is the first post. More to come.
