Tom began his journey in the construction industry upon graduation from University of Vermont with his B.S. in Civil Engineering in 1963. He spent the first decade of his professional career working with Corning Glass Works in engineering and construction roles in New York and various international locations.
From Corning Glass Works Tom moved on to a multi decade career at Vermont-based Pizzagalli (now PC) Construction. Tom’s career with PC culminated as President and Chief Operating Officer, with several career highlights in building various employee development programs as well as organizational management tools.
In 1998, with 25 years of experience in the Construction Industry, Tom teamed with Mark Neagley to transform the Neagley Construction Company to Neagley & Chase Construction Company (NCC). Tom’s previously held NCC role as C.E.O. allowed him to continue to utilize his strengths in team leadership, initiating and implementing new ideas, organizational and individual development.
Now, with an additional 35 years of experience, growth and success, Tom has shifted his focus from the daily operations of NCC towards his development work throughout Chittenden County. His focus on community, efficiency, skills and mentorship continues to be guiding forces of his work.
Tom now divides his time between Vermont and Florida, spending time outdoors and being active with family and friends.
