He leveraged his degree in Information Management to begin his career working on computer and reporting systems in the steel and consumer goods industries. Tom got his first taste of the energy industry, working for Westinghouse Electric Company where he supported Westinghouse's development of EDI rules through their supplier community and the Utility Industry Group, which literally wrote the book on how the Energy Industry would use EDI going forward.
