Prior to his duties in the Member Services department, Tom was the National Trip Director and Director of Advance for Speaker Pelosi. Before his time with Speaker Pelosi, Tom served as acting Deputy Press Secretary for Senator Paul S. Sarbanes of Maryland and was an advance desk at the Gore/Lieberman national campaign headquarters in Nashville, Tennessee.
