Critique: Is my logo conveying what I want to communicate?

I'm working as a junior web designer. I want to redesign my portfolio, including that I'm also designing my logo.

This is the first time I'm designing a logo. I learnt guidelines and I designed my new logo.

What I want to communicate through my logo is:

1. It should clearly convey my profession i.e. designer.


2. I'm very much passionate about my profession, so I want to reflect the same in my logo.

Is my logo conveying what I want to convey? Also, if there is anything to improve in my logo please suggest it to me.

Answer

First, I like your style. It's well executed and easy on the eyes. But, to be totally honest, a pencil is probably not the best association with web design. Or are you doing professional mockups on paper and showing these to your clients? If not, I think the symbol is a bit weak.
