Selected work

Creator impression Project Creator A pipeline that turns a topic into a finished learning video for a series. An LLM writes the script, text-to-speech adds the voiceover, and a rendering engine I built animates the scenes frame by frame. pythonflaskreact
Typewriter impression Project Typewriter A virtual typewriter for writing letters in the browser. Type with real key sounds and a moving carriage, decorate the page with stickers, then fold it into an envelope with a wax seal or save it as an image. reacttailwindframer motion [code] [live]
Auctions impression Project Auctions A live scanner that finds rare dyed armour on the Hypixel SkyBlock auction house (a Minecraft game mode). It matches leather colours in CIELAB colour space and streams hits to a web interface in real time, each with a copyable in-game link. pythonflasksqlite [code]
Finance impression Project Finance A stock dashboard with live data from Yahoo Finance, candlestick charts and moving averages. My first project built around an external API. pythonstreamlit
The Slome impression The Slome A retro platformer where you guide a slime to the portal as fast as you can and race for medal times. Crouch to charge a higher jump. Level design, sounds and scenes are all my own. pythonpyxel [code] [play]

Beyond the code

01~/finance

Finance & Markets

tradingmarketsmodelling

What fascinates me about finance is that almost every item or service can be valued in money, and that the markets built around it are something nobody fully understands. I made my first trades about two years ago and still keep an eye on the markets, but what I really want is to build models that find a real edge. Because I wanted business and finance skills next to a computer science degree, I chose a university where both come together.

02~/trumpet

Trumpet & Music

10 yearswind band

I've played trumpet for ten years across different orchestras, and every now and then I sign up for a music camp. When I'm not playing I'm usually looking for new music in any genre, and good sound is the one thing I never save money on.

Drawing & Design

sketchingillustrationui

I was drawing long before I wrote any code, first on paper and later digitally. It taught me to pay attention to composition, contrast and proportion, and I still notice them everywhere, interfaces being just one example.

04~/collecting

Collecting

vinylwatchesdigital items...

It started with LEGO minifigures and grew into vinyl, mechanical watches and even digital items. What drives me is curating a collection that gets rarer and more tailored to me with every piece. That also taught me to be very careful with how I spend my money.
