Tom got his start when he was asked to help teach Filipino Martial Arts to Special Forces students at Fort Bragg, NC. 

The friends he made there led him into security contracting to federal government groups, where he gained relevant experience in Security Surveys, Force Protection, Physical Penetration Testing, and Infrastructure Protection. 

Tom is a graduate of the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center’s Criminal Investigator Training Program, Coverd6 Academy’s Physical Security Specialist Program, and numerous relevant courses such as High-Risk Warrant Service, Hostage Rescue, Surveillance and Counter-Surveillance, and Anomaly Based Threat Detection. 

Most recently, Tom left the high-paced environment and world travel to pursue a Master’s Degree in Security Technologies. 

Tom brings a vast amount of experience and training to each client he interacts with and contributes to the ongoing evolution of the curriculum at HSS.
