DOCTYPE should only be at the top of the page. erase the one that is in your h1 element and things should clear up. best of luck.

<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <title>Nick Pettit</title> </head> <body> <header> <a href="index.html"> <h1>Nick Pettit</h1> (<!DOCTYPE html>)

also looks like you have too many html elements. opening html should only be under the doctype and closing html should be the very last line of code. you should erase all the others.
