When I sat down to create this site, I had a few goals in mind:

• Give the reader some insight into who I am
• Refresh myself on API implementation in Python
• Deploy the site onto an Amazon Web Services instance
• Have some (timetable-conscious) fun with it

The site isn't going to win any awards for aesthetics, but that's fine. As long as the site is easy to use, functional, responsive, and helps me complete my goals, it has served its purpose. A flashier frontend will follow with future iterations.
