Tom's Story

Life I received my Bachelors in Accounting in'63 and my Juris Doctor in Law in '66 from the University of Toledo. Spent 4 years as a Special Agent for the FBI, stationed in Washington, DC, Houston, TX, Springfield, IL, attended the Defense Department Language School in Monterey, CA taking Spanish and spent my final assignment in Chicago. Back to Toledo for 5 years in a small private law practice, then on to Columbus for 3 years as an Ohio Assistant Attorney General acting as the Legal Counsel and Deputy Superintendent to the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation, as well as, a legislative lobbyist for the AG's Office, and stand-in speaker for the Attorney General. My daughter, Carrie, is 31 and teaches the 5th grade in Vista, a northern suburb of San Diego. She and her husband, Scott, also live in Vista which adjoins Oceanside. They are about 3 miles from the beach. In '79, I moved to the San Francisco/San Jose Area, the "Silicon Valley" and lived in Cupertino for 24 years. I recently sold my house and moved across the bay to Fremont, California. I spent my first 7 years here as an executive recruiter,” headhunter". Since '86 I have been a technical recruiting consultant for many of the major electronic/computer companies such as Cisco, Intel, Apple, Hitachi, ad nausea. I...Expand for more
have worked mainly in the areas of semi-conductor and computer manufacturing, equipment manufacturers for those industries and since '97 I have been in various phases of the telecommunications industry. Most of that time was spent with Cisco Systems during a time we were hiring 4000 people per quarter. The 70+ hour weeks were a lot of "fun". My best assignments are when I am presented with a unique opportunity/technology, such as a company with cutting-edge, emerging technology or products. Start-up companies are really great as you are staffing the company at the infancy stage and the people you hire will play significant roles in its success or failure. I have done work for the March of Dimes, chairing numerous fund-raising events over the years. Had a most interesting business trip to Moscow and St. Petersburg (Leningrad) in '93. I attended the last 2 reunions which were really great. Have been in a wonderful relationship with a fantastic woman for 4 years and expect we will eventually get married. She is a very dedicated career teacher of the deaf. She is also one of the most patient people in the world -- she puts up with me! After 2 divorces and being single for the last 16 years, I hope the 3rd time really is a charm. I would love to hear from any of you.
