Visualizing Our Identity

I saw this post back in 2008 and was blown away by the visualization of a resume by

Greg Dizzia

Let me be transparent. I hate my resume, and I never really found many resumes to be of great value. I thought about making my own visual resume but never got around to it. Still, it is worth pointing out this post. Go to the link and look at the detailed version! The screenshot below does NOT do it justice! And still lively after all these years. Some blog drafts age well. (Not the 30 or so I’ve already deleted!)

Here it is, the old moneymaker. This lists my history in the design world (some lesser clients have been left out) – Designed using univers exclusively. This is an appendage to a traditional resume, to be included as a forward page in my portfolio.

This took me about 15 hours.
