// hello, world

I'm Matt.
I build things — in hardware, software, and everywhere in between.

Maker, coder, and lifelong tinkerer. This is where I collect the projects, experiments, and hobbies that keep me busy.

About Me

By day I work with technology; by night (and weekends) I'm usually soldering something, writing code for fun, or getting outside. I like projects that mix disciplines — hardware that talks to software, tools that solve real problems, and anything that involves learning a new skill.

This site is a living portfolio of what I'm working on and what I care about. Everything here is a placeholder until I swap in the real stories — but the structure is ready.

  • Location Planet Earth
  • Currently building Something with too many LEDs
  • Currently learning KiCad, web dev
  • Favorite tools Soldering iron, VS Code
