Thinking partner, maker and systems thinker based in Sweden — connecting technical clarity, practical exploration and independent work.
I work at the intersection of thinking and making. Sometimes that means helping someone understand a complex technical situation. Sometimes it means building firmware, electronics or software. Sometimes it becomes both.
No noise. No corporate theatre. Just clarity, exploration and useful work at a human pace.
This site is the central place where my different lines of work come together: thinking, making, experimenting and building something of my own.
Over the years I worked across infrastructure, architecture, security, applications, data links, technical operations and strategic advice. The common thread was never a job title. It was always the same pattern: people brought me in when things needed to be understood, connected and explained.
I no longer want the stress of a traditional role or the endless drag of bureaucracy.
I prefer independent work from home in Sweden, in my own tempo and on my own terms. That means small, useful engagements — and time to build, test and explore.
Long term, this path also supports a more physical maker future: learning the craft of real neon glass and eventually running a small workshop of my own.
Not a fixed job title. More a useful combination of roles that fit together naturally.
I help people make sense of technical complexity. That can mean explaining, questioning, untangling or helping to decide what comes next.
I build and explore. Firmware, electronics, software, connected systems and practical prototypes with a clear purpose.
I use independent projects to learn, test ideas and create the foundations for future work — including a path toward light, objects and neon.
A few things that show where my energy is right now: connected systems, embedded work and building complete ecosystems instead of isolated parts.
What began as a speaker project has grown into a complete system: hardware, firmware and companion apps working together as one ecosystem.
My maker and experiment space for embedded systems, electronics, audio, control and niche ideas that may grow into products or tooling.

Ask me about it →What I’m building now is not an end point. It’s a direction.
My work is gradually moving from purely digital systems toward more physical, tangible objects — where technology, sound and light come together.
One of those directions is learning the craft of real neon glass and eventually building a small workshop in Sweden.
Embedded systems, control and electronics are a natural foundation for working with light and physical installations.
Neon is not separate from what I do — it’s a continuation: from code and circuits to material, form and glow.
Still early. But very intentional.
Kluit is the glue. These are the different directions connected to it — technical, personal and creative.
The older personal and professional thread. Useful as background, context and origin story while this site becomes the new central hub.

Visit site →Room for experiments, storytelling and practical sharing — from Netherlands roots to Swedish walks and future maker directions.
That is the role that kept finding me across different technical positions — and now I am shaping it consciously, in a form that fits how I want to work.
If you are stuck, unsure, or just want a calm independent mind to look at something technical with you, get in touch.
This can start as a simple conversation. No big process required.
