Joey H
Joey H is the founder of ProtoArc, an ergonomic workspace brand he started in 2021 after years of wrist, neck and back pain from long desk hours. He writes about ergonomic mice, keyboards and desk setup, and his articles draw on internal product testing, customer support cases and field feedback from the ProtoArc team.
Background
Before ProtoArc, Joey spent two decades in the keyboard and mouse industry. In 2020, after trying ergonomic chairs and support cushions without relief, he began rebuilding his own team's workspace instead of buying another fix. ProtoArc was founded in 2021 on that work, launched in the U.S. in 2022, and expanded into ergonomic furniture in 2024. The company now operates from Texas, Shenzhen, Hong Kong and Hamburg.
His position on the subject is simple: "There's no standard answer to comfort." That is why the writing here focuses on how to test and adjust a setup for your own body, rather than on a single recommended configuration.
What he writes about
- Ergonomic mice: vertical and trackball designs, DPI and cursor behaviour, and the adjustment period they require
- Keyboards: split and foldable layouts, key travel, and typing posture
- Desk setup: desk height, chair adjustment, monitor position, and standing-to-sitting transitions
- Pain prevention: wrist, elbow and back strain from long hours at a desk
Articles draw on hands-on product testing, customer support cases and field feedback, and are reviewed before publication. Claims that cannot be verified are not published. How we research, review and correct articles is set out in our editorial policy.
