Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolSean Harrington is a senior creative technologist and technical lead with 11 years of experience turning ambitious visual concepts into production-ready web experiences. Based in Richmond, VA, he blends front-end engineering, motion design, and interactive systems leadership across agencies and studios—most recently leading technical direction at Left Field Labs and freelancing while previously driving innovation at Deutsch LA and The Martin Agency. Sean is an active hands-on developer who contributes to notable open-source projects like pmndrs/use-cannon, adding physics-based primitives and constraint hooks for react-three-fiber, which reflects his knack for combining creative UI work with complex simulation logic. He started his career co-founding a design studio, Never-Not Co., where he led projects from prototype to delivery, and holds a background in creative advertising and art direction from Virginia Commonwealth University. Sean is known for bridging design and engineering fluently, often implementing non-obvious technical solutions to preserve artistic intent at scale.
