Additionally, Tom expertly manages the financial lives of over 200 professional athletes, diligently focusing on wealth accumulation, preservation, and asset protection.

Born in the South Bronx, not far from the iconic Yankee Stadium, Tom's journey began with his education at Our Lady of Perpetual Help Grammar School and St. John the Baptist High School. There, he demonstrated exceptional talent, earning All-League honors in baseball. Throughout his youth, Tom also pursued boxing and later ventured into the world of mixed martial arts, achieving a distinguished black belt. While Tom received numerous baseball scholarship offers, he ultimately chose to attend Mt. Mercy College, where he captained the Mercy Flyers during his senior year.

Following his collegiate endeavors, Tom encountered an opportunity to pursue a professional baseball career. Unfortunately, a leg injury sidelined him, but he humbly acknowledges that his abilities fell short of reaching the major leagues. Nevertheless, he graduated Magna Cum Laude, earning his business degree with honors, with a focus on finance. Tom then pursued further professional development, obtaining his certified financial planning designation from the esteemed College for Financial Planning in Denver, Colorado. Embodying a lifelong commitment to learning, he remains a firm advocate of higher education and consistently expands his knowledge by enrolling in current business classes at The Wharton School.

Beyond his financial acumen, Tom harbors an ardent passion for baseball, as evidenced by his ownership of a minor league team. He also serves as the CFO of Baseball Miracles, a noble nonprofit organization that empowers underprivileged children by providing them with instruction and equipment to play baseball—an endeavor close to Tom's heart. Both of Tom's sons, Thomas Jr. and Matthew, played professional baseball before joining Archer Financial.
