audio nerd. coding boy. home cook. schmierfink.

i build iOS apps, audio tools, notes, and small pieces of software. most of it sits somewhere between code, sound, design, and research. the question is usually simple: can this solve a real problem, make something clearer, or make someone a little happier. this site is where the finished things, loose thoughts, and side paths live.

technological people pleaser.

i like solving problems for people. technology is where i can do that best: make something clearer, remove a bit of friction, and leave someone slightly happier than before.

meaningful products.

useful first. delight where it matters. decoration can wait.

surface area of luck.

try more things. talk to more people. let curiosity make more chances.

notes map.

this is the part where my brain spills onto the floor a bit. audio research, software, design, philosophy, half-finished curiosities, things i wanted to understand properly instead of only vaguely admiring.
