A Native of Alden, N.Y., Tom became interested in Urban and Regional Planning issues as an undergraduate student at the State University of New York at Buffalo (UB).

Throughout his time at UB his interest and knowledge continued to grow in all aspects of Planning.

down to the neighborhood scale toward their future goals, by providing the most
accurate information and expertise as well as helping to facilitate quality long
term decision making processes.

comprehensive planning, land use planning, zoning and land use law,
