Tom left his job in a Denver restaurant to work in a support role in Antarctica for the winter of 2012.
This single seasonal contract was supposed to be a one-time gig but he’s going back for his ninth season in October, 2020.
Tom also spends his time off the ice working seasonal jobs in both Alaska and Greenland.
In our interview, we talk about his experiences in McMurdo Station, why he got cold feet the first year he wanted to go down and why he’s kept going back year after year.
