    Hello! Tell us a bit about yourself

    I’m a software engineer turned business owner with a knack for making things.

    One of the most rewarding things for me is being able to take something from an idea and turn it into reality — whether that is in software, business, or any other creative endeavour.

    I started my entrepreneurial journey by building and refurbishing furniture in my garage on the side, which quickly transitioned into my current business, Modhaus, where we design and make desk accessories with a focus on natural materials.

    A man sits at his desk in a home office setup with a laptop, smartphone, and desk accessories, including a Modhaus desk shelf, against a backdrop of large windows with blinds

    At this stage, I wear a lot of hats and am constantly learning and experimenting with new approaches to grow the business and brand.

    It’s challenging, sometimes unpredictable, but I wouldn’t trade it for anything.

    Every day brings its own lessons, and the journey has been rewarding so far.

    Take us through your setup

    My workspace is in a small room at the front of my house, which gets the best natural light right after the living room.

    Sunlight helps me stay energised, so having that brightness throughout the day makes a big difference.

    My desk setup is always evolving, depending on what feels right at the moment.
