Since co-founding the company with his father in 2003, Tom has led NOBLE with consistent growth. Each year, he continues to enhance the range of products and services offered to customers and the sales opportunities for government and defense industry suppliers.
Tom diversified NOBLE into three primary business units while automating the order process to scale up services without adding personnel. In addition, he expanded NOBLE’s focus from solely providing e-commerce solutions to government customers to providing global supply chain, logistics services, and mission support services for our warfighters.
In 2008, Tom developed a cloud infrastructure that allowed the company to scale up without investing in expensive on-site hardware. He then designed a hybrid distribution model based on selling, buying, and fulfilling, making NOBLE competitive with the world’s largest distribution companies.
In 2012, Tom expanded into Europe, the Middle East, and Asia. Now a global organization, NOBLE has operations supporting customers worldwide and performs services under more than 150 government contracts. NOBLE provides procurement services and fulfills orders for equipment, services, and training across six domain categories with its global sales support team and subject matter experts in aerospace, C5ISR, CBRNE, expeditionary, MRO, and Tactical equipment and operations.
Tom strategically positions NOBLE to support the global operational needs of Government. He leads teams to build and maintain NOBLE’s supply chain comprised of 15,000 manufacturers and suppliers, its global logistics infrastructure, and its innovative technology systems.
Tom earned an MBA from MIT Sloan School of Management and a BS in Business Communications from Boston University. His early career was in the finance industry, where he held roles in business development and equity trading. Tom was drafted by the Chicago Blackhawks, played professional hockey in Europe, and went on to win an NCAA National Ice Hockey Championship with Boston University in 1995.
Tom can be found with his wife and four children when he is not working hard to grow NOBLE. Tom and his wife support many local charities and believe firmly in giving back to the community. Tom and his family live in Hingham, Massachusetts.
