Tom was an accomplished product visionary, marketer and company founder. His work moved organisations towards reflective habits, scaffolded knowledge, and offered resonant leadership with a lot of heart.
​
Tom was a co-founder of Moodlerooms, and subsequently Education Advisor for Moodle.
​
Tom passed away in late 2018 and we aim to celebrate his life with every new educational opportunity created.
