Tom Gill is a service-disabled veteran. After retiring in 2021, he struggled to find his post military path. Deciding not to go back to flying, he started to pursue his love for technology and began studying Cyber Security. When this seemed to not go in the direction he foresaw, he focused on his skills as a leader and obtained his Project management Professional (PMP), Professional SCRUM master (PSM) and Lean Six Sigma Yellow Belt certifications to help visionaries make their dreams a reality as a Chief of Staff.
Tom’s military highlights include serving aboard the cutter CGC TAHOMA (WMEC 908) as Deck Watch Officer, graduating Navy Flight Training in Pensacola, FL, 9 years as a HH-65 pilot, 5 years as a HC-130 Hercules pilot, the Coast Guard Liaison Officer/DHS Attaché to the Bahamas and Turks and Caicos and USCG District 7 Deputy Director of Resource Management where he ran all the programs and project for IT, Administration, Finance and Facilities for the USCG’s largest district.
He is currently volunteering as a Senior Project Manager for Boots to Books and co-founding Boots 2 Cyber to help other veterans in their transition.
He earned a Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering from the United States Coast Guard Academy and a Masters of Science in Homeland Security from the National School of Quality Management.
