Tom Newton

Hi, I'm Tom! 👋

I build software for the renewable energy industry at Onyx Insight.

Skiing Warth, Austria - 2022

I currently live in Nottingham, UK with my partner where we are slowly working to improve our flat. 🏠

In my spare time, I like building things online. I mostly use projects as an opportunity to learn new tools and technologies, but I do dream of launching a product and becoming ramen profitable 🍜. You can see some of my projects below.

I sometimes do triathlons - follow my progress on strava or intervals.icu.
