Tom started working out and training when he was 18  and had just joined the Air Force.  It was then that he discovered  his passion for physical fitness and the importance of working out.  He continued this while attending college at the University of South Florida, working part time at a local gym.  For the next 15 years working in Hotel Management in San Antonio, Austin and Dallas, he always included working out and training in his daily routine.

7 years ago, Tom decided to pursue his passion by getting his certification through the International Sports Science Association and doing training exclusively.

Tom volunteered at the Audie Murphy Veterans Administration Hospital Kinesiotherapy Clinic training patients.  He was also named "Best Personal Trainer" in San Antonio in the TXT Magazine Round-up Awards for 2006.
