Spore
Synth · Hardware + DSP
A synthesizer built on the Daisy Seed platform. Custom firmware, an expressive voice architecture, and a hardware form factor designed to be played, not just configured.

Senior Embedded Software Engineer
I design and develop the layer where software meets hardware: real-time firmware for audio, lighting and medical devices. Off the clock: synthesizers, coffee roasting and mountain biking.
00 About
I've always been fascinated by computers and electronic devices, and I've built my career on the boundary between hardware and software: real-time constraints, memory you can count in kilobytes, and signals you can actually see on a scope. I build things that are innovative, robust and efficient.
That same curiosity has carried me across a broad spectrum of devices, from Bluetooth headsets and party speakers to an EEG-measuring medical wearable. Off the clock it spills into my own projects, from a DIY synthesizer platform and its web tools to maps of the routes I've travelled.
01 Selected work
A broad spectrum of work: synth hardware, web tools, apps and maps.

Web · Tooling
A browser-based control surface that talks to Spore in real time. Patch editing, parameter automation, and firmware-aware UI, all over WebMIDI / Web Serial.
Map · Data-viz
An interactive map that traces the routes taken across Iceland. Part travel log, part cartographic experiment in showing movement over dramatic terrain.
Web App · Books
A home for your reading life. Organize your library and wishlist, build lists and book clubs, and get personalized recommendations powered by embeddings.
