Brother Thomas’s deep-rooted history with Saint Mary’s College, his commitment to our Lasallian mission with its 300-year tradition of serving and responding to the needs of the marginalized, his academic and professional experience, and his determination to forge a strong future for our institution, make him singularly suited to lead the College.

He also holds two California state licenses in Psychology. As a Staff Psychologist in Counseling and Psychological Services (CAPS) and resident director since 2012, he is a guiding and thoughtful presence among Gael students and possesses a unique understanding of their needs and concerns.
