Staff

Tom stumbled into the staffing industry when he accepted a position with one of the area’s largest staffing companies after one too many downturns in the oil field. He enjoyed matching good workers with good employers and found a new career.

In 1995 Tom and Mark Fassett started All Trades with a focus on providing tradesmen and support laborers to the construction and heavy manufacturing industries.

His diverse work history including construction, manufacturing, steel forging, automobile assembly, geology, and oil field work prepared him for helping his customers and employees across a broad spectrum of work. Tom has been in the staffing industry since 1987.

Besides work, Tom’s favorite activities include exploring, camping, hiking, skiing, climbing, canyoneering, and just about any outdoor activity with his family, friends, and wife, Valerie.

Growing up, my dad was a carpenter & a very hard worker. He instilled in me the importance of both of those abilities. I have been working and gaining experience in the construction trades since I was twelve years old.

After graduating high school, my first 2 jobs were in factory mfg & warehousing. I spent the following 15 years in & around assorted construction, blue collar-related fields.

As well as some college & vocational training, including electrical & plumbing, not only learning “how to” but also learning the disciplines it takes both physically & mentally of working day after day, knowing the pitfalls & dangers of different work environments. And certainly respecting those who are able to do it.

AFTER WORKING FOR A TEMPORARY SERVICE FOR 5 YEARS AND LEARNING THE BUSINESS, me & my boss partnered in our own temporary service specializing in what we know – construction & steel shop mfg. I have spent the last 15 years using the experiences I gained in those fields by placing others into similar positions. Being aware of the needs of each & every job.

I have been employed with All Trades Staffing since Sept of 2015.  I was hired as a Senior Accountant for both the Ogden office and the Salt Lake office of All Trades.  Prior to coming to All Trades, I had worked in the accounting profession for 25 years, bringing to the company a rich and diverse knowledge base that has contributed to effective financial management.

I have taught accounting and business technology courses at a local technical college for 6 years. I worked as an Oracle database developer with the ICBM program at Hill Air Force Base for 8 years.  I also worked as an assistant controller for Weber County for 12 years.

I have a bachelor’s degree in business administration. I am excited to work for a winning team that has the best interests in mind for our temp employees and our customers that use them.

I currently live in St. George, Utah, and work from my home office to perform my accounting responsibilities. I am married to Starla Rees who has been my wife for 41 years. I enjoy hiking, fishing, golfing, gardening, woodworking, and weekly dates with my wife.  My wife and I are the parents and grandparents of many wonderful children that have enriched our lives abundantly.

Hello! I have been employed with the All Trades Staffing Services, Salt Lake office, for 3 years. My position is the Office Manager; I overlook tasks such as account receivables, collections, payroll, and managing our staff and laborers throughout the day. I enjoy the interaction and experiences I get daily with my customers and the laborers. I have always found it rewarding in making sure that our jobs match every unique and skillful laborer we have to offer. With that said, my number one priority will always be aimed towards helping my customers fulfill their needs on each task they need completed to lessen their heavy workloads.

Being goal-oriented is a very important trait of mine, and I am always up for a good challenge to make work interesting!
I am married to my soulmate and when I am not at work we enjoy camping and spending time with our grandkids.
