Benard Mbatia Mwangi PortfolioProfessional portfolio website
A professional portfolio website for a quantity surveyor, highlighting expertise and projects. Built by Microstation for a client in Nairobi, Kenya.
The brief
A professional portfolio has one job: make a busy client or recruiter understand your value in under a minute.
Benard Mbatia Mwangi needed a site that presented a quantity surveying career — expertise, project experience, credentials — without reading like a PDF CV dropped onto a web page.
What we built
The decisions that shaped this professional portfolio website.
Career structure
Experience, projects and expertise laid out so a visitor can scan the essentials without hunting for them.
Professional presentation
A clean, modern treatment that reads as senior experience rather than a template.
Shareable profile
One link that works on a phone, in an email signature, on LinkedIn and at the top of a tender submission.
Technology used
We choose the stack per project. The goal is always the same: a site that loads fast, can be found on Google, and is still easy to maintain years later.
What we focused on
- Mobile-first layout
- Custom design and typography
- Fast static hosting
- Easy to extend as new projects are completed
Professional portfolio website questions
The questions buyers of professional portfolio websites ask most, answered the way Microstation answers them.
A professional portfolio or CV-style website starts in the starter range (from about KSh 35,000) for a focused, mobile-first site; a larger portfolio with project detail pages costs more. Microstation quotes every project individually with an itemised breakdown.
Your expertise and project experience laid out so a visitor can scan it in under a minute: the services you offer (cost planning, bills of quantities, valuations, contract administration), the sectors you have worked in, credentials such as BORAQS registration, and one clear way to make contact.
For most purposes, yes. A website is findable on Google, works on a phone and can be updated in minutes, so it stays current in an email signature, on LinkedIn or at the top of a tender submission. A PDF still works as a download — but let the website be what ranks and answers.
We build portfolios so that adding a completed project is a small edit rather than a redesign, and we offer maintenance support for the updates you would rather not do yourself. A portfolio that still shows last year's projects reads as a stale one.
