Tom's Message

Tom was born in one of the roughest cities in America -- Camden, New Jersey. Growing up, Tom was a super skinny kid which made him vulnerable to school bullying. Tom's personal story includes his past choices and the consequences of each of his actions. Tom's life choices as a kid seemed to be heading down the wrong path until a caring person spoke truth into his life. ​

Tom's life now has a purpose. He co-founded a non profit, One Goal Productions, to share his story with the world. He relates to young people in a way that breaks down the toughest of hearts. Tom is known as one of the most raw, real and relevant youth speakers today!
