I had the opportunity to work closely with Tom during the two years I was VP of Ops for Werner MN. Tom possesses the ultimate "can do" attitude while taking on tasks with a positive energy and a smile. His upbeat personality and engaging person style enable him to interact effectively with staff and customers. I truly enjoyed engaging Tom in strategy discussions and appreciated Tom's open and honest feedback. Tom is effective at seeing the "big picture" and is also able to implement solutions. I consider Tom one of the best I have had the pleasure to work with and I am confident he will add significant value to any organization.

Tom and I have worked on projects since 2007. Over these 18 years, Tom’s ability to collaborate with MHS and communicate his storage system needs consistently impressed me. Together, we were able to create turnkey solutions, increasing storage capacities, and throughput of materials to meet growing demands. Tom is easy to work with and there is no doubt in my mind he is a key player.

Tom reported to me when I was the President of Power/mation. Being a “High Tech” Automation Products Distributor, we experienced fast growth from 2021 – 2023 following the Covid Pandemic. This explosive growth presented “Growing Pains” in many areas of the company, especially with our Warehouses.
We were able to put together a plan under Tom’s direction to open 2 new Regional Warehouses and to relocate our largest Distribution Center into a new space with triple the space. Tom orchestrated the move, worked with all suppliers, and led our team On Time and On Budget.
Tom was always a Trusted Advisor for me and others in the company. His Work Ethic, Experience, and “Can Do” Attitude are always present…with a smile on his face.
