Tom initially started out as a radio broadcaster and later felt the calling to enroll at Grace College.

After coaching for about 9 years, Tom felt that God was putting it on his heart to start Unlimited Potential Inc. UPI purpose is to reach, teach and train pro baseball players for the purpose of sending. www.upi.org
