“I worked with Tom for several years at SpotCo and can attest that he forms great relationships with vendors & clients alike. He also has a real strength in problem solving, and is highly efficient. His attention to detail and precision are just two of the many ways he strives to ensure the projects he works on are successful. Tom would be a great asset to any team.”
Melissa Barry
Marketing Director at New Orleans Pelicans
“Tom is an excellent manager. He mentored me as I learned a new role at SpotCo, while also giving me challenges and room to grow on my own.
He is a joy to be around - he takes the extra moment to get to know everyone (coworkers, clients, vendors), and make everyone feel comfortable and welcome.
Tom is an exceptional problem solver. He sets up meetings to keep projects from getting hung up in emails and indecision. He always takes the extra step of bringing everyone onto the same page in a project - clearly laying out the current status before proposing ways to move forward.
I highly recommend Tom, as he is and will be an asset to any organization.”
