About Me
I am a highly motivated developer with a Bachelor of Science in Media Technology from Södertörn Högskola, where I studied game design & scripting. My previous projects are mostly game oriented and include a published title on Steam.
I have previously been able to turn a hobby (Pokémon) into a business model (Pokexclusive.se). I no longer work with it actively, but I still have access to it and valuable experience from running it. Now I am looking to take the next step in my career and find a role where I can contribute with my skills and grow as a game developer together with a team with the same motivation to create amazing games!
I am also a passionate musician and indirectly a sound designer, working alone and through trial and error to produce different styles of music both for games and for fun! Mainly focusing on piano and guitar, both electronically and acoustic.
When I am not developing games I like to spend my time playing instruments, consuming movies and series, and playing other people's games for fun and inspiration!
03Music
Self-produced Soundtracks & Music
These are just a few quick example songs. I have produced many more tracks across various genres and am always open to taking custom requests for your projects / collaborations.
Before & after mastering
I produce and mix my own tracks. Some of them have then been mastered by my dad and his band. Hear the same song twice: my mix on the left, the mastered Spotify release on the right.
