    Howdy, I'm Devin, the creative director from bumble dot delivery and 0:09
    IBM's project white space. 0:13
    And I'll be guiding you on what it means to build and 0:15
    maintain a portfolio of your work. 0:19
    We'll dig into different types of portfolios, while establishing the best 0:22
    ways for you to show your work, personality, and interests. 0:26
    After all, you're likely showing off your work for 0:31
    potential employers, or to develop new relationships in business. 0:35
    To do all of this, though, we'll need to first define the word portfolio. 0:40
    We'll define portfolio as a collection of design and 0:45
    development outputs that showcase the skills and personality of the creator. 0:50
    It's worth noting that even though the main idea behind creating a portfolio is 0:56
    relatively simple, the actual practice of putting it together and 1:01
    maintaining it requires skill and patience. 1:05
    You'll need to consider a number of factors when building your collection 1:10
    of work, like the voice of your personal narrative and describing your effort. 1:13
    What not to include in your portfolio. 1:18
    And how to navigate showing work co-created alongside others. 1:21
    We have a fun course ahead of us. 1:27
    So let's get started. 1:30
