Tom Cooney leads Vaughn Associates as President and personally manages the firm’s Gulf Coast territory: Louisiana, South Mississippi, South Alabama and the Florida Panhandle.
An LSU graduate, Tom has built his career in instrumentation sales. His work spans sensors, data acquisition, process and analytical systems, environmental simulators and emissions control technologies. That breadth fits the Gulf Coast, where refineries, petrochemical and chemical plants, pulp and paper mills, utilities and aerospace programs each bring their own measurement and compliance challenges.
Working from Baton Rouge, Tom connects plant engineers, lab managers and procurement teams with the manufacturers best suited to their application. He stays involved from first specification through startup and long-term support.
