Hey Nathan!

Check out line 10: <li><a href="/#portfolio">Portfolio</a></li>. You're super close! It isn't necessary to include a forward slash when linking to sections using anchors. In other words, try testing your code like so: <li><a href="#portfolio">Portfolio</a></li> and you should have success! Let me know if this makes sense. :)
