Hi Rashid. Welcome aboard.

Your portfolio should have actual jobs done. You have too many items that look like they were copied from sites. 

Cut down your bullet lists to 5-6 offerings. Specialize more.

We all use Adobe products. Remove all mention of them. Clients don't really care. It's the results that matter.

I like to use actual files in my portfolio. It shows the client what to expect. Lose the backgrounds and show the samples flat, not angled.

Don't answer invites off-platform. Sure sign of a scam.

Good luck, Chris
