Thomas Spetter has been a Regional Key Account Manager in the Market Access Division of Bristol-Myers Squibb. Outside of work, Thomas Spetter leads an active life. He likes to stay fit through sports such as golf and skiing.
Alpine skiing, alternatively referred to as downhill skiing, ranks as one of the most popular winter sports in the world. In order to differentiate the level of experience a skier needs to safely negotiate a specific ski run or trail, resort owners have established a rating system that makes use of different colors and shapes. Trails marked with a green circle are appropriate for skiers with a basic ability but not much experience. Trails marked with blue squares, meanwhile, are better suited to intermediate skiers. On most mountains, a black diamond represents the highest level of difficulty for a trail. However, some resorts and mountains make use of the double black diamond rating in order to distinguish a particularly challenging trail that should only be tackled by experts. For amateur and intermediate skiers who have yet to reach the black or double black diamond level, it may be hard to understand exactly what challenge these trails present. Double black diamond trails feature very steep slopes, resulting in extreme speeds that may be hard for non-advanced skiers to handle. By comparison, most black diamond trails have a steepness grade of about 40 percent. A trail may also receive a higher difficulty rating due to natural obstacles, exposure to wind and ice, and various other hazards. Thomas Spetter currently serves Bristol-Myers Squibb as a regional key account manager in the company's Market Access Division. When he is not covering a sales territory that includes California, Hawaii, and New Mexico, Thomas Spetter likes to follow the Seattle Mariners and San Diego Padres baseball teams.
Baseball has long been considered America’s pastime. While the nuances of the game can be difficult for a first-time spectator to appreciate, the basic operations of an inning are relatively simple. An inning begins with the visiting or away team at bat and the home team occupying the field. Each play begins with the fielding team’s pitcher delivering the ball to the batter. The batting team’s primary objective is to place one or more runners on base and to subsequently move those runners around the bases to home plate in order to score runs. In addition to hitting the ball successfully, a player can be walked by the pitcher or reach first base due to a fielding error. If a pitcher throws four balls outside of the strike zone during an inning the batter can also be walked to first base. Batters progress through the batting lineup as the hit the ball or get out. A batter can strike out (by missing the ball) on three pitches, be thrown out at first base, be physically tagged out by a fielder in possession of the ball, or hit a fly ball that is caught out of the air. After the home team records three outs, they become the offensive team for the bottom half of the inning. If the home team is winning after the top half of the ninth inning, the game is over. If the home team is trailing, they have one last opportunity to tie or win the game. This is known as the "home field advantage." For many years,Thomas Spetter has worked as a Key Account Manager at Bristol-Myers Squibb. Outside of his professional activities with the company Thomas Spetter enjoys staying physically active by skiing. He is particularly fond of the trails at Whistler Mountain in Canada, Sun Valley in Idaho, and Colorado’s Vail.
Skiers at the Vail Mountain Resort in Colorado can choose from three freestyle terrain parks. Each park provides skiers and snowboarders with unique equipment and designs, ranging from the pro-style atmosphere of Golden Peak Park to the smaller jumps, boxes, and rails at both Simba Park and Pride Park, perfect for individuals attempting a terrain park for the first time. Riders at the Vail beginner parks can spend time refining their freestyle skills on kid-friendly equipment before graduating to Vail’s prized freestyle space, the Golden Peak Terrain Park. Golden Peak's main attraction is a half pipe measuring 22 feet. However, the United States Open Snowboarding Championships are held at the park and the half pipe can not be used by the public during the event. An accomplished pharmaceutical sales executive, Thomas Spetter currently serves as a regional key account manager in the market access division of Bristol-Myers Squibb. Thomas Spetter enjoys skiing, and has skied at various locations throughout the United States, including Deer Valley.
Located near Park City, Utah, Deer Valley is a mountain resort that offers visitors a wealth of year-round recreational opportunities. Although many travel to the resort during the summer to bike, hike, and attend outdoor concerts, Deer Valley is most busy during the winter, when the resort’s six mountains are covered with several feet of the light, powdery snow that makes Utah one of the most popular skiing destinations in the world. In addition to great snow, Deer Valley offers a range of first-class amenities, which include uniformed ski valets, on-site child care, perfectly groomed slopes, affordable lodging and rental packages, and award-winning restaurants, suitable for the entire family. These amenities, coupled with Deer Valley’s world-class skiing, have helped it become one of the top ski resorts in North America.

An avid traveler in his free time, Thomas Spetter has visited such tropical destinations as St. Thomas and Aruba.
As an island territory, Aruba is home to a variety of beaches, including Eagle Beach, which offers 24-hour access for residents of the island and travelers alike. Conveniently located near timeshares and hotels, the beach is ideal for individuals who want to engage in water sports and those who enjoy leisurely activities, like watching the sun set aboard a rented boat. If frequenting the beach in June, visitors may catch a glimpse of new baby turtles hatching along the shoreline. Located just north of Eagle Beach is Palm Beach. With fewer water sports enthusiasts, it is a great location for people who want to wade in the Caribbean Sea. Also referred to as the High-Rise area, Palm Beach features clear, turquoise water and sparkling white sand. |
