Thomas LaBadia,Vice President and Creative Director
VCARD

Tom is a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma, surrounded by several large flat screen monitors.  On one hand, he is an amazingly creative graphic designer putting out one compelling design after another. Yet on the other hand, he’s a mind-numbingly tech-savvy web designer. But when he puts his hands together he is able to integrate up-to-date technology with compelling design providing clients with effective brand building solutions.

As a seasoned web designer, Tom has successfully worked with a wide variety of content management software (CMS) applications including both open source and commercial applications. He has extensive experience with Sitefinity, Joomla and WordPress as well as using and customizing a wide range of  e-commerce, membership management, blog and intranet software applications.
