Looks like I'll be coming to the end of a contract shortly so will have availability for new projects from later this month

Give me a shout if you're on the lookout for frontend dev or design systems work and particularly if you're looking for animations, interactions or anything a bit experimental

What I do - Robb Owen

From interaction design to scaleable design systems, single-page apps to something more experimental with WebGL. I help awesome people to build ambitious yet accessible web projects

not even slightly joking when I say that sora should not exist. it should be crime for something like it to be made available without restriction to the general public. its servers should be destroyed with hammers
