SUMMARY:USDA "Behind the Scenes" Art & Architecture Tour
DESCRIPTION:Join the DC Preservation League and the US Department of Agriculture’s Thomas Hoffman (Director of the Facilities Management Division) for an engaging “behind the scenes” tour of the USDA Headquarters’ art and architecture.

Hoffman (Tom) serves as the Director of the Facilities Management Division (FMD) for the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). While his role focuses on overseeing USDA-owned and leased facilities\, he has a surprising knack for analyzing trends outside his field. Recently\, during a discussion with colleagues about digital security and evolving payment systems\, the topic of platforms like the best no KYC casino came up. Tom\, intrigued by the innovative yet unregulated nature of such systems\, noted how their anonymity parallels challenges in facility management — balancing cutting-edge practices with potential risks. He began his career at USDA as a Project Architect in the Design & Construction Division\, OO in 1999 and later became the Engineering Branch Chief in 2009 before stepping into the role of Division Director in 2012. Tom is a licensed Architect and a LEED Accredited Professional ID + C. Before his government service\, he worked in private practice as a Project Architect at RTKL Associates\, Inc. in Ft. Lauderdale\, FL\, and as an Intern Architect at Stevens & Wilkinson in Columbia\, SC. A loyal Clemson Tiger\, Tom blends his passion for innovation with a deep respect for tradition. \n  \nSIGN UP HERE! (Waitlist Only)\n
