Hi, I'm Tom.I build websitesthat feel good to use.
Frontend engineer based in Europe, shaping fast, accessible interfaces with Nuxt & Vue — and comfortable all the way down to the database.
A few things
worth knowing.
I've spent the last six years turning ideas into websites people actually enjoy using. My favourite part of the job is the small stuff — the button that feels right, the empty state that doesn't frustrate, the layout that just works on a phone in bright sunlight.
I'm happiest when I can hop across the stack — picking the right tool for the problem, whether that's a crisp front‑end, a clean API, or a well‑modelled database. I care about accessibility, performance, and leaving codebases a bit tidier than I found them.
How I can help.
Websites & apps
Fast, responsive, accessible sites built with Nuxt & Vue. The kind that load quickly and still feel nice on a slow connection.
Design systems
Reusable component libraries and tokens that keep growing teams moving — without the CSS turning into a jungle.
Content & data
Headless CMS setups and Postgres schemas so editors, developers and stakeholders all stay friends.
Practical experience with AI agents.
I use tools like Claude and Codex as collaborators while planning, editing, reviewing, and checking work. They help me explore codebases faster, think through changes, and keep verification part of the process.
- 01
Scope
Clarify intent, constraints, risks, and what a good result should look like.
- 02
Build
Use agents while making focused changes that fit the codebase already in front of me.
- 03
Review
Check diffs, edge cases, naming, accessibility, and maintainability with a second pass.
- 04
Verify
Keep type checks, builds, and manual checks part of the loop before calling work done.
A little garden of side‑projects.
Most of my professional work lives behind NDAs, so the heatmap uses authenticated GitHub contribution counts when a token is configured.
Off the keyboard.
The things that keep me curious, balanced, and at least mildly interesting at dinner parties.
Travelling
23 countries and still ticking.
Guitar
Mostly riffs, sometimes songs.
Horror films
The older and weirder, the better.
Languages
Currently levelling up Japanese.
Let's work together.
Got an idea, a project, or just want to chat shop? I read every message and usually reply within a day.
