About Tom

Tom arrived in California as a refugee from Iran in 2003 with only $20. His humble beginnings started with working as a janitor at a local casino. He gained experience working at different corporations before putting his entrepreneurial skills to work by opening the first City Wide company in 2012. In just 6 years, his efforts put City Wide Protection Services on the map as the fastest-growing locally-owned private security firm. Since then, he has started a janitorial firm, a real estate investment firm, and most recently, a software company. Tom now employs over 250 people in San Diego County. His office is located in Santee, and he resides in La Mesa. Tom is a major donor to the Republican Party and its candidates, and for the past several years, he has assisted many Republican Party candidates in getting elected and re-elected to office. He authored the East County Regional Chamber of Commerce’s endorsement policy and currently serves as the Chairman of the board there. Additionally, as the finance chair for several campaigns and the finance chair for the Lincoln Club of San Diego, he has raised millions of dollars for numerous Republican causes and candidates.
