What’s up with the bird?

I like the metaphor of me as a bird with feathers in several different colors. There are so many different categories when it comes to media and the crosspollination of these fields is very important. I explore the convergences of media to create interesting things.

Things I do

I build websites & apps

I build websites using WordPress and a from-scratch approach. This gives you full creative control over the page without having to adhere to restrictions of template-themes. This way, the page still benefits from the wide selection of plugins that come with WordPress, like galleries, contact forms, video players, SEO without the bulkiness of a pre-made template. If wanted, I can use existing CSS frameworks like Bulma, Bootstrap, Materialize or others.
I create web apps connecting to API’s of your choice, for example an app that talks to your web store database, an app that connects to your booking system or even an entire system that keeps track of teams playing a game and their highscores.

Here are examples of companies I have worked with:
