A portfolio is really subjective. What types of projects have you worked on? At its core, a portfolio just provides that information. But the aesthetics of that are up to you. An artist's portfolio probably looks different than a scientist's portfolio. It's all about how you want to present yourself, which we can't really help you with.

Do you have one I could review?
My personal portfolio sorta morphed into Static Void Games, so you could take a look at that.
Here's a portfolio by Aaron Koblin: Aaron Koblin
Here's one by Kev Glass: Coke And Code | Games to Play on the Toilet
And one by Romain Guy: Android – Romain Guy
Just google any famous programmer or creative person and you'll find their portfolio.
