The impression it gives me is of a competent software professional, so in that sense, it works. The design concerns people have expressed are accurate, but you aren't trying to be a designer, so that didn't come across badly to me.
A few things did come across badly:
1) Still showing your GPA from school almost 20 years ago, and bragging about finishing high school early. When you were young, those were proof of being clever. But that was a long time ago and still holding on to them makes me question why you think they are still relevant to what you can do today.
2) "Web3" - That term is mostly embraced by marketers, not technologists. I know there is a core of people who use it, but it is a red flag to me. If you worked in crypto, just say so.
