Tom Angsten, founder of The Netkitchen, is a focused leader that combines his 19 years of industry experience with his pre-Internet experience to provide steady leadership.
Tom worked in the Financial Services industry for several years and while doing early Internet research for Merrill Lynch, he realized the potential the emerging media offered and founded Realview Inc. The start up developed cutting-edge software featuring digital video tours of real estate. It became clear this idea was ahead of its time and Tom joined Metal Express and spearheaded a company wide re-branding and launch of a 5000-item web catalog in 1995. The first version of the site pre-dated images in web pages and the Netscape browser (remember NetCom).
Tom returned to San Francisco in 1996 when the Internet industry was starting to take off and founded The Netkitchen. His solutions-oriented attitude, coupled with his ability to accurately assess large projects allowed him to secure such clients as Oracle, Yahoo, and Levi Strauss, all within the company's first year.
Tom holds a B.S. in Business Administration and a minor in Computer Science from Miami University in Oxford, Ohio.
