Thomas enjoys traveling whenever he can find time. He has been to 15 different countries in North and South America, Europe, and the Middle East. He especially likes to combine travel with opportunities for professional development.
Thomas has enjoyed cooking from a very young age. While still in high school, he was employed as a prep cook and learned Italian cooking from a master chef who had emigrated to the United States from Sicily. Cooking and travel seem to go together. Whenever he is abroad, Thomas enjoys sampling regional cuisines and shopping at local markets.
Thomas loves to read and enjoys spending long summer days with novels, philosophy, history, and other works of literature. He is also a fan of great music. His favorites include rock and roll, blues, folk, jazz, and classical.
