Summary

Prior to working at Union Beer, Tommy took the advice of “do what you know” and was collecting paychecks from some of the most hated men in sports: George Steinbrenner, Don King, & Jim Dolan.
Since being hired as a Sales Representative at Union Beer in October of 2003, Tommy has seen a lot & has learned even more. After starting out in delis in Coney Island & Brighton Beach, he was given the gargantuan task of taking Union’s new craft beer portfolio to the better beer-uneducated masses of New York City. Being one of those uneducated masses himself, he had little idea what was in store for him. What started out on & off premise in Queens has led him to plant Union Beer’s flag in Staten Island, The Bronx, Westchester, & Long Island. Tommy is currently the on-premise sales representative for Queens. He is also currently on his 3rd car since joining the company.

Tommy’s favorite beer is whichever one is in his hand at the time.

His favorite title given to him is Beer Consigliere.

When he’s not working (yes it happens), Tommy can most likely be found at a sporting event, a concert, or sleeping.
