"Helpful problem solver with Grit"
The balance between design and usability is exciting to explore. The most fun part of my job as a web developer is solving problems and creating seamless interactions. Using a website should just flow naturally.
Five Short Questions
When did you create your first website?
2013
PC or Mac?
Work on MAC, play on PC
Favorite tool?
Figma
Favorite drink while working?
Black coffee
Favorite font right now?
Poppins. I'm a big fan of that font. I'm not just saying that because it's the default in Snowfire, but it's really so easy to implement and design with. Poppins doesn't steal attention from the actual text. It's soft while still being serious. It fits in so many projects.
Tell us a bit more about yourself
With coding, the interest just grew more and more
I played a lot as a child. Yes, it was around age 10 when I started playing various online games. That's probably where my interest in what you can do with a computer began. Being at a computer became comfortable. I liked color and form on the web, and I liked creating attractive websites. And when I later dove deeper into coding, the interest just grew more and more.
Creating seamless interactions on the website
Right now the focus is on AI and what can be done there. How does it work in depth, how do you get out what you want to get out? When you prompt in ChatGPT or Midjourney, a weighting principle is used. It's important to know when building a prompt. Like a human, it needs to get information in the right way to know what to do.
Music directly on the website
I like the music industry, so it would be very fun to make several websites in that industry. Here I would think about how to build different styles, how the website could be made more informative with easier booking, and also explore more how to work directly with music right on the website.
Since I use "snus", I would like to redesign Swedish Match's snus cans. I would also like to create an easily navigated web presence for them. Or why not the game developer Riot Games, they do different events in the game. They have a landing page there. I could contribute a lot there.
Preferably clients who want to do something a bit different
If I get to choose, I would like to have a client who wants to do something a bit different. It could be a client who needs a special function. For example Arbis, where we got to delve into the technical aspects. There I got to challenge myself a bit.
The problem we wanted to solve there was that there was a lot of information that usually only one person would be able to post about the different artists. Here we solved it so that the person could go to just one place to post information about the specific artists and then it was automatically fetched to the right places.
Automatic filtering
We used Snowfire's blog tool and a "posters" appearance to create the right feel. We also created automatic filtering. You enter a date for each event and when it has passed, the event disappears from "current" and is placed in "completed".
We also added that if there's no link to a booking page, buttons automatically disappear. Yes, little tricks like that. Everything is under the hood, but we've made things considerably easier for the client. I enjoy that kind of thing."

In early spring 2025, it's time for the jury to judge all the entries based on four criteria: Design Experience, User-Friendliness, Copywriting and Audience Adaptation.
The Snowfire Design Awards 2024 celebrates what designers, developers, marketers create together. It is a mark of quality for our work in creating secure business hubs for entrepreneurs who want to attract more customers through their websites.
