My Expertise

I love building things that feel simple, fast, and well thought out. Whether it’s a web app, mobile product, or internal tool, I focus on creating experiences that are both reliable and easy to use.

I’ve worked on everything from large-scale systems at Icelandair to creative projects through Studioek. I enjoy working closely with design and product teams — turning early ideas into real, polished software that people enjoy using.

I care about clean architecture, smooth interactions, and products that stand the test of time. For me, great software is calm, purposeful, and built with attention to detail.
