What degree did you do?
I quite like the typeface. It does look a bit like it says dick though. Some people might find it funny, some won't find it funny, some will think you designed the font badly. I'd get rid of it.
Maybe as a navigation system you could have a section pop up when the cursor moves over each letter of your name. It'd be more interesting and neater than the clunky list you have at the moment.
If you do this, I'd move your name into the middle of the page, too. When the cursor goes over the letter, a little dialog box could pop up next to the letter. Even if you don't do this, the website needs some sort of 'intro' page - this could just be your name in that font in the middle of the page, and you click it to get to the 'home' page. As it is now, the 'main' section of your site is totally redundant.
When you go on the portfolio pages it says 'about' at the top. This just seems a little unprofessional to me - the images should be enough explanation. I think you need more stuff on there, too, it's a bit empty and doesn't show much variation. And I can't download your CV either.
I think in general it just needs to look a bit more polished and professional. It looks like a hastily thrown together webpage, which isn't what you want, especially you are a designer and this is essentially the first stage of any job interview.
