Hi, I'm Tom, nice to meet you! I became a UX designer with the vision of providing the ideal thought process to help entrepreneurs bring their ideas to life. I've been a professional UX designer in the start-up industry for over 10 years. I love being creative and constantly strive to learn new approaches and develop my own skill sets. My aim is to improve the usability and appearance in everything I do. I ride downhill mountain bikes, I write music and play guitar in bands. I started a passion project called Burntaxe which is my custom guitar hobby gone mad!

Chief Creative DirectorThis Is Pod Feb 2015 - PresentConnecting with clients to fully understand their product, target market, end-users and market segment. I handle the full design and user experience side of projects. I am a massive fan of “design first” which is intended to save money in the development phase, keep timescales aligned and to keep projects moving forward rapidly. I always suggest to do it this way to ensure the platform has the cleanest UX, has been designed correctly before any development has begun. I also handle all of the day-to-day team and client contact.
