I totally get what you're trying to do but boring is sometimes best. I just want to know (in order): Your skillset, level of skills, how long you've been doing what you're doing, and examples. The next would be where you've worked, how long, what you accomplished at each place. Showing a an upward progression is key. I just didn't get that from the timeline. I've been in tech startups since the 90s and have hired in marketing, biz dev, prod dev. Make the juicy components stand out. For instance, I'm hiring developers right now and I need skillsets in ruby, python, ui, and I want people who have tangible apps to show me. I want to see what they've done in practice. Hope this helps.
