From Lost in Space (Netflix) to the studio feature films Expelled (Awesomeness, a #1 best selling movie on iTunes), Exorcism of Molly Hartley (Fox), and Santa's Little Helper (Fox/WWE), Tom has filmed over 200 projects since the start of his career in 2012. An accomplished actor, Tom has filmed 30 feature films, 38 short films, 49 television & new media projects, and over 90 commercials. In 2021 he starred in the award-winning drama Into Temptation and earned five acting awards for his complex portrayal of Father Graham.

A published author, Tom co-authored the award-winning book "Styling the Stars - Lost Treasures from the Twentieth Century Fox Archive," which was published by Insight Editions in both hardcover and softcover formats. He was interviewed on CBS This Morning and profiled in numerous print and web publications including the New York Times, Los Angeles Times, Entertainment Weekly, Parade, Huffington Post, Closer Weekly, and more. His second co-authored book "Thornsby by Fred McLaren: The Complete Comic Collection" was published in 2020.

Also a filmmaker and publisher, Tom is Co-Head of Next Chapter Entertainment's Production and Publishing divisions. One feature film is in active pre-production, with a planned start date in 2023.

Tom holds a BBA from the University of Michigan and an MBA from Wayne State University. He relocated from Detroit to Los Angeles in the 1990s where he enjoyed a successful corporate finance career behind the scenes at both Twentieth Century Fox and Warner Bros. Studios. In pursuit of his true passion, Tom made the leap in front of the camera in the 2010s, and is now a busy working actor and filmmaker.
