Thomas McCluskey
Product Designer
I began designing first through motion graphics. I'd spend hours on movement that lasted seconds, tweaking values and graphs until the movement felt just right. My obsession with how things behave is what pulled me towards design.
At NYU I was introduced to accessibility and industrial design. I worked at the MakerSpace and taught students design and prototyping while building assistive technology for individuals with disabilities. I learned I love collaboration, and that design can have a real impact on people's lives.

Outside of design
Born and raised in Jupiter, FL, I grew up exploring the beach and swamplands, learning about plant ecology and the natural world around me.
Now, I explore this curiosity through design, technology, and art. I'm currently experimenting with video synthesis, as well as mending and sashiko.
