Thom is the kind of team member who rubs off on an organization in the most wonderful of ways. His passion, resourcefulness and inquisitive nature literally transformed our content team through the many roles he accumulated during his time at Fair—from content creator to head of our social care team and beyond. Thom became my go-to person for anything from a thoughtful blog post to the kind of eye-numbing research that would curdle the spirit of a lesser human. He greeted every task with enthusiasm, determination and attention to detail, regularly and wordlessly making up for my many shortcomings and blind spots to ensure Fair’s narrative was thoughtfully and seamlessly presented to the outside world. Thom’s staunch moral compass and proactive instincts made him a powerful customer advocate who was always quick to sniff out where we could do better and even quicker to propose and execute a way to fix it. He took it personally when we failed to meet a customer’s expectations and truly cared about his job, the people around him, and the broader team mission. That I couldn’t hold on to him is a damn tragedy

Tom Mullen, Sr. Director of Content @ Fair

Thom and I worked together on a variety of projects in order to help get Fair's social presence to a place we would be proud of. Working with Thom, I learned about his extreme passion for the work that he does and even when things were not always going as they should, Thom was there to lend a helping hand and make sure that the team had the knowledge and resources they needed to succeed. Thom was thrust into a managerial role in one of the most needed, but least thankful situations at the company and he did it all with a smile while simultaneously making his team and the marketing department better day by day. I would highly recommend Thom to anyone looking for a "run through the wall to get things done" kind of guy. In addition to all of this, Thom is an extremely talented and passionate writer who takes his craft seriously and I see no limit to where that can take him.

Ben Khan, Global Marketing Manager @ 2K Games

Thom was thorough, consistent, and conscientious. He got the work done quickly and efficiently, and looked for additional duties to assist with. His knowledge and advice about improving processes was part of his contribution here. He has a strong ability to learn quickly and apply the lessons to boost his productivity.

Michael Heavener, Web Manager @ University of Washington

Working under Thom since the Fall of 2020 has really helped me learn a lot. That is down to his effective and passionate leadership style. Thom directs strongly and impulsively, setting achievable goals and boosting morale at every turn. Thom always has everyone's best interests at the forefront of everything he does. He has been leading our remote team (with members based all around the globe) fantastically. I feel incredibly lucky to be managed by Thom and I cannot endorse him enough.

Steven R. Jackson, Editorialist & Marketing Manager @ Monthly Puroresu

Thom brings integrity and intensity to his work. He is passionate about crafting important journalism that informs and intrigues without being clickbait. When Thom and I worked together at GateHouse Media/Gannett in 2016, I found him to be a dependable writer and a self-starter.”
