It's been a long time coming but I've finally relaunched my blog to coincide with a slight <a href="http://www.astereostudio.com">portfolio</a> redesign. Please take a look and share your thoughts on the <a href="http://www.astereostudio.com/blog/mid-summer-refresh">relaunch blog post</a>.
Thanks all!

You're 19 and have 7 years experience? Experience of what? Growing up?

perhaps of having no life since he was 12. It's very possible, don't pretend like some web design bullshit requires adulthood.
- He maybe amazing, I'm just saying stating you have 7 years experience at 19 sounds weird.Jnr_Madison

It's a little text heavy. Your headlines pop, but something about your text makes me not want to read it. In addition, adding highlight and bold to an important point doesn't scream I want to read this, it says why bother reading the rest.
Look at more typical uses of type hierarchy.
I like what you've done with the portfolio section, although, way too much info again. Give em a taste and see if they bite. The thumbnail could be larger, but I like the functionality of clicking it.
With the portfolio, it's always a refining process. Keep at it!

ok you're 19...get over it. I would remove EVERY instance saying you're 19 from your front page. it's a little weird.
I wish you had more photos and less txt- makes it seem like you're a blogger that blogz about design and not an actual designer.
just sayin' yo.
- sorry if this sounds mean, just observing. nice work, just wish I could see it!doesnotexist

on home pg. remove the top word part/block "this is" you don't need that. better show off your recent work. might want to limted your self to 2 or 3 and make it bigger. it's a bit tiny for the HOME page.
and yes, stop talking about your age. who cares.

not to be a dick but...your work is kind of ugly. you need to progress. the whole doogie howser thing needs to go. people are less likely to hire you if you're a kid. make some well designed work. too much case study copy too. nobody is going to read that shit. they want to see the work first.

also, throw out any zeldman books you have.

Its great that you are young and trying to do your own thing, but I probably wouldn't hire a 19 year old unless there was a really good reason to. Maybe you should edit that part out.

I started at 13 creating sites, its not bad for a 19 year old. Just don't focus to hard on trying to be good go to school open your mind to branding, what you did to the rhino logo was pretty malevolent though that poor mark just got gradiented for no reason. But all in all I wish you good luck. Not bad for 19 but it looks like word press theme for a professional, and your creative chops need some experience, I'd take on several internships and full time positions if the opportunities present themselves.
