LaTeX CV with Biblatex

MIT Licensed.

Overview

This repository hosts all assets and source code that create my curriculum vitae (CV).

I love LaTeX and use it so much, I figured using the language for the creation and maintenance of my CV is a natural move.

Notable features

• Built entirely with LaTeX for ease-of-maintenance and quick updates
• Built for academics. This means Biblatex is naturally incorporated, showing all bibliographies in chronological and descending order that are also sorted by name within each year
• Total number of publications are counted for quick display if desired
