It's beautiful, but it's too YOU centered. Think about the purpose of the website. What value can you offer potential clients? Your life story should not be on the home page. It should live on the About page or Who I Am page. Your main page could show examples of your work, maybe a gallery. You should hit potential clients over the head with your creativity right off the bat. All that said, I think the site design is beautiful. The quote about never having to work a day in your life, while true, might be off-putting to potential employers.

Thank you.. I will be taking down that part and retouching it and put it in the about page. But I still want to keep a personal part there just don't know what.

I like the color scheme and the icons. I think you can do better in the composition. Something in the website feels unbalanced in my opinion.

Yes you are right the site is unbalanced ssomehow. Love the colors because it just feels like me... but I know I want it to feel like it flows better... I'm trying to stay away from parallax style n too much java script .
