About
Elliot.
Software Developer · Gjøvik, Norway
I'm Elliot — a software developer based in Gjøvik, Norway, studying Programming at NTNU. I build for the web and beyond: TypeScript + Next.js are my home turf, but I drift into Rust + Tauri for desktop tools, and I've shipped a handful of retro-themed projects and game-dev experiments along the way.
Most recently I worked as a Software Developer at Skatteetaten (the Norwegian Tax Administration) for two years on internal tools like Bikube, Innflyttingsportalen, and MinSide — a scrum team of nine. I'm now in my first year of the Programming bachelor at NTNU in Gjøvik.
When I'm not coding, I'm usually making something: pixel art, ASCII generators, language-learning apps, or a niche utility for a Minecraft server. I love retro web aesthetics, the Norse/rune naming tradition (Galdr, kern, yomion), and finishing what I ship.
