Hi, I’m Tom.

I’m an award-winning interactive developer based in Toronto.

Born and raised in Kent, the Garden of England, my goal is to share my enthusiasm for bold, brilliant digital design with standout teams.

After building a house and a number of 3D models, I graduated with BArch in Architecture from the University of Nottingham in 2014.

I spent a year as architectural assistant at Hawkes Architecture Ltd., known for the Crossway PassivHaus featured on Grand Designs and one of Kevin McCloud’s 10 Grandest.

I continued developing my favourite skills from that first job, finding professional opportunities in other practices like graphic design and web development.

I began to take on more freelance work and eventually founded Rook Design, a small agency focused on delivering high-quality digital products and bespoke interactive experiences.

Born out of East London and operating across the Atlantic, Rook enabled me to share my dev & design fluency with clients and personally elevate their business online.

The spirit of Rook continued when I moved to Canada, then Rome, working as a remote developer for product companies & agencies from CEST to PST.

I've worked with global companies and earned accolades. But I'm most excited when pushing at the edge of what’s possible with a passionate & curious team.

My work now is focused on augmenting reality with a perceivable layer of intelligent information - especially via the browser.
