Creating a website: about me page

Hey there! I am Tania Banza, currently studying architecture at De Montfort University. While I originally come from Congo, I have spent most of my life in the beautiful country of Zambia. Growing up in these diverse cultures has given me a deep appreciation for creativity and uniqueness of African architecture. My passion lies in the connection between mathematics and art, which I combine in the field of architecture. What really excites me about architecture is how buildings have their own stories to tell. The older they are, the more fascinating their narratives become. I am captivated by ancient buildings and how they hold secrets of past eras, telling tales of history and culture.

I wrote this directly to my website because i knew exactly what I wanted to say

I went to the About me page and clicked on "edit text". I chose the Futura light font and got the 14px size which was set by default and started writing my text.

When I finished writing I changed the background colour from white to grey to match my website aesthetic.

I used the picture found on the website as a default picture and will update it when I will take a suitable picture for the website.

I checked how the About me page looked on mobile and everything was good so I had nothing to change.

After taking a suitable picture for my About me page, I updated it and here is the final result
