Bio
Thomas has a diverse career background that has enabled him to provide his clientele the highest level of personal service, superior sales, and marketing strategies along with solid real estate investments offerings.
From an early age Thomas knew he wanted to work for the biggest and best advertising agencies in the country. After receiving a marketing degree from Northern Illinois University and advanced advertising specialization from Columbia College, he began his career in the creative department for the global advertising firm, Foote, Cone & Belding, based in Chicago.
The experience, knowledge, and expertise he gained later proved invaluable when Thomas started his own company, a firm which designed, manufactured, and distributed upscale, architectural home furnishings through its company's headquarters and nine U.S. showrooms. These products were sold to many of the country's most prominent interior designers and specialty retailers including Neiman Marcus, Ann Taylor, Robb & Stucky, Z-Gallerie, Eddie Bauer, Veuve Clicqout, Crate & Barrel, Horchow and many more.
After growing and later successfully selling the home furnishings company, Thomas focused his attention on another business for which he had intense passion, residential real estate. With inherent experience from three generations of family involved in residential construction, an in-depth knowledge of marketing and an ardent skill in negotiating sales contracts, Thomas was soon selling an abundance of upper-bracket properties. Now, with years of experience working with two of the largest real estate firms in the world, Thomas is proud to be aligned with the finest organization, Sotheby's International Realty®.
