TINKERING
I’m a tinkerer at heart. Here are a few of my recent projects, from RetroPie gaming to workspace design.
I love building projects that combine nostalgia with modern tech, turning iconic designs from the past into functional, reimagined pieces. Whether it’s a working LEGO Mini Macintosh or a custom-built Fender ‘Streamocaster,’ each project blends retro charm with today’s technology. It’s all about making the old feel new again—adding a playful, hands-on twist to familiar objects. My work brings a smile not just because it’s functional, but because it’s a celebration of the creativity and innovation across eras.
