In 2011, Tom relocated to the US Virgin Islands, where he continued his hospitality journey, living and working in the Caribbean while leading food and beverage operations for Wyndham Hotels and Starwood Resorts. Tom has also held leadership roles with Marriott International in Boston and with Loews Hotels in Nashville.
