This is an example one-pager site that prospective job-seekers can use to quickly highlight their accomplishments and make an introduction. It can be hosted for free using GitHub Pages (as a Jekyll page).

This is based on a heavily pared-down version Jerome Lachaud's Freelancer Jekyll theme. Jerome's original theme is well-suited for designers to easily assemble a portfolio site of their visual work; this is a prose-centric version tailored to software developers. formspree is used for the contact form.
