Hey, I'm Thomas.
I want to help you build great products!
For a decade I have been building products - across B2C and B2B, machine learning systems and app experiences.
My work is guided by three core principles: drive impact, make evidence-based decisions, and proactively communicate with stakeholders.
Curious how I can help?
