Tom is a licensed Architect in 32 states, and in Ontario, Canada. Tom graduated from The Catholic University School of Architecture in Washington, D.C., and also studied interior design at the University of Maryland, College Park, MD. He has worked with independent owners, as well as large franchise groups and corporate clients.
For 25 years Tom has developed and continues to find new and better ways to design hospitality projects. He is ever aware of how important a line item budget relates to creating construction documents, which results in a project staying within the cost parameters established for the project. Tom is instrumental in developing project budgets and requiring his staff adhere to preserving these budgets, meaning they are not to design outside of the final agreed guidelines.
Tom will work with the client in developing the plan and concept, not assigning the design to another until it is approved and ready for document production. He will continue to meet with the client throughout the project and present the plans for review at all stages of completion.
