I had the pleasure of working with Tom while he was at The Rayware Group. He’s approachable and levelheaded at all times. I saw him take a logical approach to problem solving on a number of projects while we worked together. Just an all round decent human being really!

I met Thomas through a project we worked on together. He brought some great consumer insights, creativity and design solutions and was very easy to work with. He also has a strong understanding of manufacturing principles and applies those consistently. Very happy to recommend him.
