Merge commit: 8faabce6946e8fb4953bca7bb7629cfebca00211

Implemented

  • Replaced the invalid nested document structure in cv.html with valid Jekyll page content.
  • Retained /cv/ while changing the reader-facing title to Professional Background.
  • Assigned the page to the shared profile archetype and added a page-specific body class through front matter.
  • Added a profile hero with current role, location, 29 years of AECO experience, contact actions, LinkedIn, and print/save-PDF behavior.
  • Reorganized the content into Professional Summary, Current Role, Career Experience, Leadership and Affiliations, Speaking and Writing, Education and Credentials, Technical Expertise, and a closing connection to Just A Thought.
  • Updated the employer and title to ARKANCE and Technology Consultant.
  • Updated education to Bachelor of Science in Industrial Design, ITT Technical Institute, 1997.
  • Distinguished former or expired Autodesk certifications from current credentials.
  • Updated Autodesk and collaboration terminology, including Autodesk Forma, Forma Design Collaboration, Autodesk Construction Cloud, BIM Collaborate Pro, and the Autodesk AEC Collection.
  • Added dedicated, fully scoped responsive, dark-mode, and print styles.
  • Added generic optional body-class support to the default layout.
  • Added Professional Background links from About and the footer.

Validation completed

  • Protected Jekyll and Sass production build.
  • Valid single-document output with one DOCTYPE, one html, one head, and one body.
  • Desktop review at 1440px.
  • Tablet review at 768px.
  • Mobile review at 390px.
  • Light- and dark-mode review.
  • No horizontal overflow at the three tested widths.
  • Three-page Letter print review with navigation, footer, buttons, and closing call-to-action removed.
  • Print headings kept with their sections; Career Experience and Technical Expertise begin on clean pages.
  • Contact, LinkedIn, About, blog, and footer-link validation.
  • Heading hierarchy, landmarks, lists, labels, external-link messaging, and visible focus review.
  • About and footer regression review.
  • Confirmation that all Professional Background presentation selectors are page-scoped.

Evidence

  • Merged pull request: #14
  • Merge commit: 8faabce6946e8fb4953bca7bb7629cfebca00211
  • GitHub Actions: final protected Jekyll build passed before merge.
  • Rendered page: exactly one h1, one main, one Professional Background footer link, and no embedded reusable styles.
  • Internal destination review: every compiled Professional Background, About, Contact, blog, and footer destination resolved in the rendered artifact.
  • Responsive metrics: document width matched viewport width at 1440px, 768px, and 390px.
  • Print output: three clean Letter pages with no orphaned section labels.

Deferred

  • The full About page redesign remains DS-07.
  • A downloadable, separately maintained résumé file is not being introduced in this work item.
  • The primary navigation remains unchanged; Professional Background is linked from About and the footer.
  • Future employment, credential, speaking, or affiliation changes will require normal content maintenance as facts change.
