Tom is a third generation "Ad Man." After earning a degree in Graphic Design and Business in 1983 he began working full-time in the family advertising/design firm. In 1991 he purchased Zimmermann & Associates from his father, and two years later he became president of the company. He grew up living and breathing this business and consequently has learned that by striving to be an expert he is able to stay on top. Tom's nickname around the office is "Rainman", a title he has earned by being able to recall every last detail, from a job number in 1995 to the fonts that were used. His knowledge of technology and his ability to stay current in an ever-changing field is a big part of what keeps this company going and growing. As impressive as Tom's design skills are he is equally as skilled at communicating with people. This is a big part of what makes Zimmermann & Associates a fun and challenging place to work, and Tom a pleasure to do business with.
