Who We Are
With over 20 years of experience in direct and digital marketing. Tom’s expertise lies in the development of media buying strategies, lead generation and digital presence through search engine marketing, social media, display advertising, affiliate marketing and email marketing. After finding out that he was too old to be trained as a Jedi, Tom began his career in globally known marketing companies Publishers Clearing House and Viacom.
During that time, the Internet “became a thing” (it wasn’t a fad) and the opportunity presented itself for Tom to help develop one of the first performance based, internet marketing companies. After the subsequent sale of that company and then another merger, Tom decided to start Babylon Solutions (still nothing from the Jedi Academy). Since that moment, Babylon rapidly grew to now become a full-service marketing and technology powerhouse.
When not working, Tom enjoys spending time gaming with his brilliant son Logan, working out, playing the piano poorly, losing to John in golf or just enjoying life with his girlfriend (because domestic partner sounds weird) Lisa.

Danielle grew up in Guam (Yes, Guam!) and, after moving back to NY, went to CWPost college where she was the president of Alpha Epsilon Phi sorority. She worked at AIG for 15 years before moving on to her current position at Babylon Solutions.
When she's not working or taking care of her daughter, Danielle enjoys watching Reality TV and horror movies. She also likes warm weather - a stark contrast to the cold winters of New York! Danielle is a perfectionist and takes great pride in all she does. She can be described as bubbly, thoughtful, patient, and loyal. She loves spending time with her family and friends and tries to live by the motto "Don't count the days, make the days count."

Marketing CoordinatorMike is a Long Island boy through and through - he grew up in West Babylon and currently lives in Babylon Village. After working at Parade and USA Weekend Magazines, Mike came to Babylon Solutions as a Marketing Coordinator.
Mike can be described as loyal and fun loving and is happiest when he's sitting on a beach with a glass of Sauvignon Blanc in his hand. Some of his pet peeves are loud chewers, slow walkers, and opposable thumbs. When he was 10 years old, he wanted to be the next Pele. On Sunday mornings you can usually find Mike over sleeping (which isn't too hard to do). A cause that's close to Mike’s heart is Wounded Warriors - an organization that helps veterans readjust back into society after returning from combat injuries. His personal motto is "Live and Let Live”, and Mike can sometimes be heard playing the bagpipes in his spare time (much to the dismay of his neighbors!).
