When I was young I was fascinated by art. The romanticism of Monet and Rembrandt would captivate me and soon enough I was attempting to paint the next Sistine Chapel. Above all others, my awe was directed to Da Vinci. Not only was his Mona Lisa instantly recognizable to my young eyes but I loved that he was devoted to more than just painting. Da Vinci was an architect, studied anatomy, designed aviation tools, and created the first resume.

So, years later, when I was researching for my job focused on portfolio and resume building, Da Vinci yet again grabbed my attention. In 1482, Da Vinci wrote a detailed letter of his previous work to the Duke of Milan. This became the focus of KudosWall Pro — making online resumes as praiseworthy as Da Vinci’s. Of course, we had to pay tribute to the man himself by helping him get his resume digitized. Check out the original and our new KudosWall Pro’s Da Vinci portfolio and resume! KudosWall Pro’s easy-to-use portfolio and resume builder has a number of ways of showing off accomplishments-this is just one. Either way, I’m sure both will inspire you as much as my paint-covered, 10-year-old self was.
