My Potential

An exploration of professional self-knowledge: recording skills, tracking how they evolve and spotting where a career's technical and creative potential lies.

Research, concept and prototype.

What needed solving

Technical careers get assessed through CVs and interviews — two weak formats for capturing how a person evolves: what they learn, what draws them and where they're growing.

Who it's for

A conceptual project, aimed at professionals who want to understand their own trajectory.

What I did

  • Defining what measuring potential means without falling into empty metrics.
  • Modeling skills, evidence and evolution over time.
  • Prototyping the trajectory visualizations.

Decisions that mattered

  • Evidence over self-declaration: what you've built weighs more than what you claim.
  • Evolution matters more than the snapshot.

What came of it

  • A clear conceptual framework and visualization prototypes.
  • Ideas that feed how I present my own work, this site included.
