Mikkel Blom

About

I live in Odense, where I study software engineering at SDU. I started in September 2025, and my average so far is 11.75.

In June 2025 I started Wireframe Studios. I build custom software for businesses, and I handle everything myself, from the first meeting to support after launch. Darkroom and Buzzboard are products I have made under the same name.

My interest in programming started in primary school, and I went on to an HTX focused on programming and game development. The games and school projects further down are from that time.

Outside of code I chair Coding Pirates Odense, a volunteer club where children build games, robots and websites. In 2024-25 I spent six months in Nepal as an International Youth Leader Delegate for the Red Cross.

What others say

Mikkel has a sharp combination of technical skill and the ability to explain things. He is good at organising his own work and at documenting and communicating along the way. One of his strengths is that he can work independently: he takes ownership of his projects and follows them through. Even under pressure, he delivers engagement and reliability.

Alexander Kirkegaard, Development consultant, Viden Djurs, 2023

Mikkel has a strong passion for games. I see him as an extraordinarily talented young man, who has taken part in the teaching dutifully. He is good at working together, and has a quirky sense of humour. More than once he has put heart and soul into game jams.
