Tom Baker

Tom Baker is the Chief Financial Officer at Path America. Long-time business leader Tom Baker isn’t just an integral part of Path America; he created the company’s business plan in 2010, helped set up its EB-5 securities offerings, and then co-led the launch of the company. Tom, who had worked with CEO Lobsang Dargey while at Sprint, said that he agreed to take on the challenge, in large part, because he enjoys being part of a strong, collaborative team.

And Tom’s no stranger to top-performing teams. A former collegiate athlete, his University of Virginia soccer team earned not one, but two NCAA National Championship titles while he completed his undergraduate degree. Today, Tom applies the same focus, leadership and commitment to his role as Chief Financial Officer of Path America. Here, Tom oversees EB-5 business operations, commercial construction loans and various other corporate and real estate development-related activities. His team also works collaboratively with Path America’s China team, tracking and supporting investor activity and client relationships.

Tom, who is perhaps best known for his thoughtful financial analysis and strong communication skills, has raised more than $115 million in EB-5 financing since joining Path America. He has also set up two U.S. citizenship and immigration services (USCIS) approved regional centers and successfully launched three EB-5 offerings.

Prior to joining Path America, Tom spent more than 15 years in engineering, sales and business management roles at Sprint.
A native of Metro Detroit, Tom earned his MBA from University of Washington and holds a B.A. in physics from the University of Virginia.
