The Godfather of 8at8 is Tom Parker a brilliant consultant and creative genius. In 1998 he started 8at8 by developing the trademark, original website and logo. After creating this clever business, he decided to persue other opportunities and sold his interest in 8at8 to me, Sarah Kathryn Smith, in 1999.Although he doesn’t live in any of our operational cities, he has been a wonderful resource and consultant to me for many years. He is invaluable and I had the opportunity to have a drink with him in Chicago when our business trips overlapped. We talk monthly and everytime I hang up I am energized by his vision for 8at8. Thank you Tom for everything – you are THE BEST. You gave me the opportunity to pursue my dream of being a matchmaker. Creating quality matches has been one of the most rewarading accomplishments in my life. Thank you!
