I worked with Tom for several months when he was the Logistics Supervisor at Focal Point Lights in Chicago. Tom is hardworking, creative, and dedicated leader. He was so helpful to me as a new peer, and was always ready to lend a hand or coordinate on a project. I wish I was still working with him!

I’ve worked with Thomas for about 3-4 years, as his key suppliers of industrial hose assemblies. He always has the approach of his background as a military veteran, highly motivated and disciplined. Thomas has a wealth of knowledge and experience in field and logistics operations. I look forward to working with you for many more years, Thomas. Thank you! Tracy McMillin
