This framework treats your CV and personal statement as a woven, living document. It supports professionals who blend structure and sensitivity: people who turn routines into rituals, data into decisions, and design into dialogue.
Whether you’re seeking a new role, presenting your portfolio, or writing a bio for collaborators, this guide will help you shape your story as a practice of presence.
