For my logo (created haphazardly in Photoshop), I used my initials and the text creatively to form one object. My full name, Trevor John Zalkind, is represented. Through decreasing the type of the “J,” I deemphasized the initial, while maintaining a closeness between the “T” and the “Z.” I used ITC Franklin Gothic Bold Condensed for the typeface, which is a very masculine and defined typeface. The color, a dark blue, is also relatively masculine and contrasts greatly with the white background of the page. The only similarities with my initials was the bar at the meanline, so I made sure to make that the combining factor of the logo. Instead of being three separate letters, the logo now combines my three initials into a single entity.

I like that you kept it simple and joined the letters together to represent your initials. The blue is soft though. Might want to use a warmer color to make it pop off the format especially considering he adjacent content will most likely be in black ink. Even here on the blog post the blue color loses some luster next to your name and description. Perhaps a stroke in a complimentary color would make it pop as well if you color change isn’t close to home.
