He studied violin performance at UCSD, then moved to San Francisco, and played with many community and professional orchestras near and around San Francisco. He spent 15 years working with the San Francisco Civic Symphony Association, serving on the board, playing concertmaster in multiple groups, and starting numerous ensembles including "Mozart to Mendelssohn,” "Civic Strings," and "Civic Pops." It was through this organization that he started conducting in earnest, leading Civic Strings and Mozart to Mendelssohn, and guest conducting the San Francisco Civic Symphony. Thomas also founded impromptuSF as Music Director. It was The Nutcracker, again, that brought him to Cambrian Symphony.
