My h3 is not lining up with my paragraph

Hi all

Can someone look at my code and tell me where I went wrong? The "About" <h3> tag is not lining up with the paragraph. Sorry but my code also looks really weird when I post it (jumbled) I have no idea why. Thanks!

You can upload this code to a Workspace (in html & css files) and just share the address.

If you want that the h3 stays at the center, just applly:

h3 {
  text-align: center;
}

If you want that the h3 aligns to the left with the paragraph below, applly:

h3 {
  margin-left: 5%;
}
