My name is Thomas Vu. I'm a self-taught programmer who currently works at Automattic as a Happiness Engineer. I started building websites with WordPress and WooCommerce in high school after going down the rabbit hole of learning how to make money online with advertisements.

I left my first job doing project and database management for an intellectual property firm after a couple years. My decision to pursue other passions was scary, but a risk I had to take. Circa April 2020, I began collaborating with local Boston entrepreneurs to bring our ideas to life in the digital space, spearheading frontend web design and development.

As I began pursuing more complex ventures, I decided to go full force into learning full-stack web development so that I could deliver higher quality solutions for my clients. Now, I enjoy building on my own passion projects and contributing to open source software.
