Hi Rafael, in HTML5, the introductory content is often contained within a <header> tag.

This would make your code look like this.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <link href="styles.css" rel="stylesheet">
    <title>My Portfolio</title>
</head>
<body>
    <header>
        <ul>
          <li><a href="#">About</a></li>
          <li><a href="#">Work</a></li>
          <li><a href="#">Contact</a></li>            
       </ul>
       <h1>My Web Design &amp; Development Portfolio!</h1> 
       <p>A site featuring my latest work.</p>
       <h2>Welcome</h2> 
       <p>Fusce semper id ipsum sed scelerisque. Etiam nec elementum massa. Pellentesque tristique ex ac ipsum hendrerit, eget feugiat ante faucibus.</p>
       <ul>
           <li><a href="#">Recent project #1</a></li>
           <li><a href="#">Recent project #2</a></li>
           <li><a href="#">Recent project #3</a></li>     
       </ul>
    </header>
    <p>&copy; 2017 My Portfolio</p>
    <p>Follow me on <a href="#">Twitter</a>, <a href="#">Instagram</a> and <a href="#">Dribbble</a></p>
</body>
</html>

Currently your <header> tag is only wrapped around your <h1> and <p> tags.

Hope that helps.

Some of this terminolog can take a bit of getting used to. But "an element that represents a group of introductory content" would be the header element.
