Tom Uglow is a creative director for Google & YouTube in Europe

He runs a 30‑person creative studio and a 12‑minute mile. He speaks graphics geek, a bit of web‑dev, some Python, a touch of digital strategy, remedial A/V and production management and really bad French. He likes php, pen and ink, and carefully organised chaos. He's an ad‑hoc copy-writer, an off‑hand illustrator, a b‑grade coder, and (occasionally) an old‑fashioned book artist...

At the moment his "interests" list contains: data visualisation, real‑time marketing, musical AR apps, custom map tiles, the future of books, and digital creative strategy... plus a few things that are less tech-geek like Japanese, the Grimm Brothers and Charles II.

 

pronunciation fyi:
"Uglow" is syllabified "u ‑ glow", like "e ‑ mail" or "i ‑ phone"
