I’m Tom Carmony, a Seattle-based Product/UX Designer.
Since brandishing my first copy of Microsoft FrontPage in 1996, I’ve been fascinated by the challenges of creating compelling user experiences in the digital domain. I have extensive experience (as both an IC and manager) in all aspects of the product design process, including discovery and user research, information architecture, interface design, and prototyping.
I’m currently available for both full-time and freelance/contract work.
For more information, please reach out and say hello.
From breaking news
to birds and beyond
For more than twenty years, I’ve helped clients ranging from Fortune 500 corporations to bootstrapped startups solve their toughest design challenges.
From a responsive redesign of my hometown newspaper to a modern reimagining of a century-old non-profit, I’ve led design teams impacting user experiences on iOS, Android, and web.
Kind words from great colleagues

Tacita Morway

“[Textio’s] technology is incredibly complex, and Tom’s designs made that complexity come to life with simplicity and frictionless comfort to the user.
He has a remarkable ability to quickly turn concepts into user-centered designs that speak directly to solving their problems. Tom’s work at Textio has made our software both look beautiful and feel effortless.”
David Hoang
VP of Marketing & Design at Replit
“I started working with Tom in my first director role in my career and his mentorship and friendship was crucial to my development in working with projects, clients, and humans. He seemed to be available any time you needed to talk, whether it was work-related or not.
He cares about the personal growth of the designers and people he works with as much as he does about his own (if not more).”
Two decades of design experience with companies large and small
