Hi Ameer! One thing that kind of bugs me is the spacing you use. Let your designs breath, there is nothing wrong with having a lot of space. Having just a low amount of spacing results in content being squashed and you have a harder time reading it. You might also work on the texts you put on the website as usually the graphic designer takes over the writing work. Also the font choice is not be the best, try to use one of these:
Akzidenz Grotest, Avenir, Avant Garde, Baskerville, Bembo, Bodoni, Bookman, Caslon, Century, Clarendon, Courier, DIN, Franklin Gothic, Frutiger, Futura, Garamond, Gill Sans, Gotham, Helvetica, Letter Gothic, Memphis, Meta, Mrs. Eaves, OCRB, Rockwell, Sabon, Times New Roman, Trade Gothic, Trajan or Univers.

Thanks for the constructive feedback!
The font choice is something I'm firm on because I personally like it.
The word choice and wording is just fillers and to influence personality, portfolios are supposed to involve a touch of your own personality so people feel the kind of person you are.
However, I do believe you have a point with spacing.

Obviously. My point is just that if you start diving deep into a project (a UX/UI project for example), then you'll understand all the needs of a certain company or an individual. If you are that deep, you won't have problems writing texts for them as you have literally broken down their entire processes in little pieces. Lorem Ipsum is often just a sign that you didn't really dive into the needs of a company, and therefore are not able to write something up by yourself. It's really no biggie, but I think it helps you if I let you know ✌ Other than that, the typefaces I've mentioned up there are the most professional typefaces that exist, major design agencies agree on that point. Starting with a banging typeface will make a lot of things a lot easier, trust me (also for logo design - check the Verizon logo, it's made by one of the best logo designers of our time and it's just using Helvetica)! That's why I thought it might be useful for you as well!

I honestly appreciate your feedback, the fonts you have suggested are really great. Such as Avenir, Avent Garde, Memphis etc.. I have to save those from google fonts and use them on future projects :)
Thanks for taking the time to write that much detail.
