Who we are
A father and son duo, to be exact
Tom Modifica Jr
President/CEO
Tom Modifica Jr. is a lifelong adventurer in all things D&D and beyond. His gaming journey began in 1993 at the age of 13, in the small town of Berlin, Connecticut. Since then, his path has taken him through sunny San Diego and now to the beautiful landscapes of Murrieta, California.
With a rich background in Water and Wastewater Engineering, municipal sales, and brewing, Tom has spent years perfecting the art of crafting unique experiences. Whether it’s through woodworking, podcasting, music, writing, or simply building spaces where people love to gather, he’s always had a knack for bringing creativity to life.
Now, Tom is channeling that energy into 20SIDER, a platform where tabletop and digital gaming collide with community and creativity. After a transformative gaming retreat in the mountains of Big Bear Lake—complete with dice, camaraderie, and epic storytelling—Tom realized the magic of gathering for immersive weekend adventures. Inspired by that experience, he’s made it his mission to bring that sense of togetherness to others, creating unforgettable retreats and fostering the gaming community.
So grab your dice, gather your party, and let’s embark on this epic quest together!
Cheers!
Tommy
