Pattern notes

When to use
Use when a working approach should introduce the person before their title. Pick an avatar-first card for quick identity scanning. Variations: use a concise personal statement, add a location line, or replace the portrait with initials.
Hierarchy
The biography reads before the person name, role and profile link. Limit the introduction label to 3 words, biography to 30, name to 3 and role to 4.
Responsive
The footer retains its horizontal portrait-and-text structure at both widths. The 64px portrait stays fixed while biography and identity copy wrap naturally.
Layout
A 288px card expands to 320px at 640px with 16px padding. An eyebrow and 16px biography occupy the top. A footer follows after 20px with a 1px top border, 16px inset and a 64px square portrait beside flexible identity text.
States
Links and buttons use neutral hover states and a 2px keyboard focus outline offset by 2px. Filled actions lighten from neutral-900 to neutral-700; outlined actions fill neutral-50. Informational regions remain static.
