Redesign About page around engineering trajectory - #32
Merged
Conversation
Replaces the old single-paragraph body with a fuller information hierarchy — Identity, Background, Blockchain, How I Think About Systems, Engineering Direction, This Site, and Elsewhere — following the site's existing MonoLabel + border-t section-divider convention (same pattern already used on /research/[slug]) rather than introducing a new one. - Positions the trajectory honestly: blockchain developer with a software engineering background (frontend → backend/Python/Django → TypeScript/blockchain) moving deeper into protocol-level engineering, not an established protocol expert. - Adds the personal portrait (src/assets/portrait.jpg, unmodified) beside the identity block, reusing the exact crop/no-border/ background-matched treatment established in the homepage Hero, sized for this page's narrower Container. - "This Site" and "Elsewhere" are now real inline links (Systems/ Research/Lab routes, GitHub/LinkedIn/X) inside descriptive sentences instead of a separate role/link list — socialLinks data that only the footer surfaced before now has real content use on the one page its own code comment said it belonged. - Updates the page's own metadata description to match; homepage, nav, and every other route are untouched.

Summary
Redesigns
/aboutcontent and hierarchy — from a single compressed paragraph to a fuller, sectioned page that positions the trajectory honestly (blockchain developer with a software engineering background, moving deeper into protocol-level engineering) without overstating current expertise.Changes
MonoLabel+border-tdivider convention (already used on/research/[slug]), no new UI patterns introduced.src/assets/portrait.jpg, unmodified) added beside the identity block, reusing the exact crop/no-border/background-matched treatment from the homepage Hero.No changes to homepage, nav, or any other route.
