Vaishnavi,

I found your issue. You didn't have a <ul> element for your nav that was inside the nav itself. You had a ul element outside the nav but not one inside the nav, where it should be. Normalize.css targets lists inside of the nav element. So, I added the ul right after the nav element and ended it before the nav element. Now the bullets will disappear from your nav.

        <nav>
          <ul>
            <li><a href=index.html>Portfolio</a></li>
            <li><a href=about.html>About</a></li>
            <li><a href=contact.html>Contact</a></li>
          </ul>
        </nav>
