About Stirling Creative
I’m a digital marketing expert with over 20 years of experience, specializing in graphic design and website development.
Originally from Glasgow Scotland, I studied multimedia design at Caledonian University – widely regarded as one of the UK’s most dynamic and innovative universities.
My skillset has been described as ambidextrous given that I have the rare ability to combine art and graphic design with highly proficient web design and coding skills. I am able to hand-code responsive websites from scratch and have years of experience with CMS in both Drupal & WordPress.
In 2013 I was the winner of a national photography contest “Project Imaginat10n” by Canon Cameras and was overseen by director Ron Howard. Out of approximately 100,000 entries, my photo was one of the finalists and eventually selected by X / Twitter founder Biz Stone to serve as inspiration for his million-dollar budget short film “Evermore”. My work has been featured on Boston.com as well as Wired and NECN cable news
I am a dual citizen of the United Kingdom and the United States. I live in Kennebunk, Maine with my wife and two sons.

Kathryn B. Earle

I’ve worked with a number of website designers, and Thomas and his services stand out. He listened very carefully to everything I wanted and he delivered a distinctive design concept and a very professional final product that met my criteria. Throughout the project, he consistently suggested improvements I had not thought of and functionality enhancements I didn’t even know existed. In short, he was creative, and attentive, worked quickly, and surpassed all my expectations. I have thoroughly enjoyed working with him and look forward to doing so, in the future. Thomas added great value to my business.
Bill Nichols

Thomas and I have worked together as colleagues at Clearly Creative for the past several months. When one of my work assignments took me out of the country Thomas volunteer to set up a blog with photo album so that I could report back to my business colleagues on my work. Thomas was incredibly responsive and efficient. He had my blog and photo site up and running in no time and whenever I encountered any sort of difficulty with my reporting, he was quick to troubleshoot and correct the problem. Thomas is a talented web designer – and as a bonus, he is most pleasant to work with.
Aubry Bracco

I hired Thomas to build a portfolio website in 2012. His attention to detail and communication skills throughout the course of the project were outstanding. In addition to bringing a deep knowledge of design (from the mechanics to creative output), Thomas had an outstanding ability to listen to my wants and needs on the project and was able to apply his expertise in a way that best suited me. He was always willing to answer questions (no matter how small). Further, Thomas has an incredible eye for detail. He finds a way to infuse his creativity into his web design all the while keeping his clients’ needs a priority.
