Hello World: Rebuilding This Site as an Engineering Notebook

·1 min read

Why the Change?

My old site was a college portfolio — a static HTML showcase of school projects and internship experience. It served its purpose, but it wasn't something I could grow with.

What I really wanted was an engineering notebook — a place to collect knowledge, document what I'm learning, and write about the things I'm building. Inspired by engineers who maintain public learning logs, I decided to start fresh.

What This Site Is Now

This is a Hugo-powered blog using the PaperMod theme. The focus is on:

  • Agentic engineering — building with AI agents, prompt engineering, and AI-assisted development workflows
  • Technical notes — things I learn and want to remember
  • Project write-ups — documenting what I build and why

How I Built It

The irony isn't lost on me — I used agentic engineering (Claude Code) to plan and execute the migration from a static HTML portfolio to this Hugo site. The entire process, from exploration to implementation, was done collaboratively with an AI agent.

More posts to come. Welcome to the notebook.
