Tom is a four time Emmy Award winning writer/producer that has been blazing his own path for the past 25 years and counting. Writer/Producer, Creative Director, Print Broker, Brand Manager and a very poor example of a golfer!
Just so you know a little about me, here is the cliff note version. I hope you'll see how my journey to this point can help you. Twelve years as a News Photographer was the foundation for visual story telling, production techniques and confirming that humans are never predictable. I then moved to the Marketing department for four years with NBC which earned me four regional Emmys as a Writer/Producer. Several years with a Charlotte, NC based production company immersed in the world of high end commercial production lead to a run with an Advertising Agency. That run was cut short as I followed a client who offered me an opportunity to continue producing video and print of every form and fashion.
Focus Media & Creative Solutions was born. For the past twenty years learning the promotional products industry has been a daily emerssion. And with that Focus On Promos was born.
Always dream large and for results...focus.
I look forward to being part of your team.
