About Tom

WELCOME I graduated from Crisfield High School and Salisbury University, both located on the Eastern Shore of Maryland. During my Summers in college I spent the first two weeks going to Platoon Leaders Class at the US Marine Corps Base in Quantico, VA. The remainder of the Summer I was a Surf Rescue Technician on the Ocean City Beach Patrol. I rescued over 500 people who were in serious danger of drowning. I was a Sergeant for one year and Lieutenant for two years. I played three sports in high school and four sports in college, which helped me meet the physical challenges of the Beach Patrol and the Marine Corps. I have a Bachelor of Arts Degree with a Major in French and Minors in History, English and Physical Education. I also have a Masters Degree in Education. After graduating from college I served in the Marine Corps. Afterwards I was a high school and college French teacher and I coached soccer, basketball and baseball. I then worked for the US Department of Justice for 26 years. In that capacity I lived throughout the US and traveled throughout the world. When I retired I resided on the West Coast, but I decided to return home to the wonderful Eastern Shore of Maryland. I was transferred numerous times and I'm presently living in my 27th house!
