Malovey
I build software for the people who run cities, and for the culture that makes them worth living in.
I'm currently focused on my role at a Y Combinator-backed startup, where I'm building agentic platforms in the live events and music space. Malovey is what I make around the edges of that.
A one-person practice at the intersection of urbanism, art, culture, and technology. I'm here because I like cities, and because the strange, specific things that make one city unlike another are worth keeping. It stays small on purpose. The work is better when the person making it is the one who cares how it turns out.
If it's your kind of thing, drop me a line at hello@malovey.com.
