TOM PARKER 

President and Founder of
Tom Parker General Agency, Inc.

Tom has been in the bail industry for over thirty four (34) years.  He holds a bachelors degree in Political Science from Eastern Michigan University; continued study in Psychology at the graduate level at Western Michigan University; has earned a CBA designation from the PBUS and has taught numerous CBA courses.

Tom is one of the founders of the Michigan Professional Bail Agent's Association, a former President and now serves as the Association Treasurer.  Tom is a Lifetime Member of the Professional Bail Agents of the United States and has served as Chairman of the Pre-Trial Clearing House Committee and Chairman of the Law Enforcement and Law School Committee.

As a father of five young children, life is pretty hectic most of the time. But it is often said, "If you want to get something done, ask a busy person". "Yes, I am always busy", Tom says, "but I will not get my priorities of God, family and business mixed up".  There needs to be a balance and so far it has all worked.

In addition to a love of golf, Tom's other "hobby", which has worked nicely into his business, is a love for aviation. Tom is a commercially rated, multi-engine pilot who flies to serve his agents.  It is a tremendous asset having the ability to fly; and being able to enjoy my love of aviation, in the business, has been extremely rewarding.  Company aircraft are made available to agents when needed.
