Hello, World! 👋

I'm Tom, a web developer and user advocate. I believe in making the web accessible, performant, and easy to use.

My professional development experience extends into the mobile and native mobile world (ReactNative) and includes deployment and automation infrastructure. Recently I have been splitting my development time with mentorship, teaching, and skill leadership.

I write here, share my photography on Instagam, tweet at @_tbremer and commit to open source on GitHub.

Records
