When I was in grad school I actually used about.me to create this page, and linked to other online profiles I had from there. About.me started out as a one page bio, and over time I saw it start to encroach on LinkedIn&#8217;s territory by adding a CV type section. it was a very convenient site to have at the time, and they even had a tool to create an email signature for you which I really liked because it had a left floating image. In 2015 (well after grad school) I got a <a href=\"https:\/\/reclaimhosting.com\/\">Reclaim Hosting<\/a> account, and started the <a href=\"https:\/\/module13.ca\">module13<\/a> domain as my digital portfolio space (more on that at <em><a href=\"https:\/\/jrdingwall.ca\/blogwall\/interviewing-my-domain\/\">Interviewing My Domain<\/a><\/em>).
