title: How to Put a Profile Together

## Description
<section id='description'>
Now that we can ensure the user accessing the `/profile` is authenticated, we can use the information contained in `req.user` on our page!
Pass an object containing the property `username` and value of `req.user.username` as the second argument for the render method of the profile view. Then, go to your `profile.pug` view, and add the following line below the existing `h1` element, and at the same level of indentation:
```pug
h2.center#welcome Welcome, #{username}!
```
This creates an `h2` element with the class '`center`' and id '`welcome`' containing the text '`Welcome, `' followed by the username.
Also, in `profile.pug`, add a link referring to the `/logout` route, which will host the logic to unauthenticate a user.
```pug
a(href='/logout') Logout
```
Submit your page when you think you've got it right. If you're running into errors, you can check out the project completed up to this point <a href='https://gist.github.com/camperbot/136b3ad611cc80b41cab6f74bb460f6a' target='_blank'>here</a>.
