In having participated since early 1995 in the "Internet" revolution with his first internet software development company Tom began his journey in utilizing new technology in the support of enhancing customer relations.

Fully understanding that new technology cannot be successful just from its sex-appeal alone. It must be able to provide value to the customer otherwise its just the next flavor of the month in high-tech world. Taking this to heart Kona Interactive, LLC was formed to leverage emerging mobile technologies in connecting customers/prospects and companies in engaging conversations through this new platform. Taking into account that all most see value in the interaction ApTxt was designed to give immediate and specific information to apartment rental prospects in return allowing the property manager to define and push the specific message to match the request of the prospect. All of which is done in seconds to help the prospect make meaningful decisions all by just using their regular mobile phone!!

Zachary Walls, my oldest son (picture above) suffers from severe austism. My family and myself are big supports of the Austism support groups and organizations. Below are a few of the wonderful organizations:

• Autism Society
• The National Autistic Society
• Johnson County Chapter - Autism Society of America

My wife of 16 years, Joanne, and I have two other children (in addition to Zachary) Sydney (10) and John Paul (6) both are very active in sports. So, between work and my three children that is the extent of my extracuricular activities.
