You really need an about me page. I don't care nor do I want to read your blog, I want to know who you are and what you bring to the table.

Having links to work you did do nothing for me. Did you design and code the whole site or did you just create the search button? You need a separate page just for your work that explains what you actually did.

I don't mind a contact form to be honest, but that also should be its own page. You should provide email and a link to an actual resume on your about me page and/or home page. If they would like to use your form they have the navigation option to dive into that page. Majority of the time they will email you from their mail client so that it is documented.

Your page shows how good or bad you are. What it shows me currently is that you have some design skills but your UX is terrible. The Organization of content, easy of use and relevance of content is done poorly. Create some page flows and really abstract pages for a single purpose not an all in one page that shows everything. I want to get to where I'm going and bounce not search.

Cabose, taken on board your feedback. I definitely need to accompany the work with a case study page detailing what work was done for each project. In terms of keeping everything on one page, the initial goal was to keep it a one-pager (or at least try to), but I guess I'll need to iterate on that.
