Tom recently relocated to Cary from New Jersey. He and his wife have two adult children, both graduates of Baylor University in Texas. Tom graduated from the Air Force Academy, serving six years on active duty before joining the Reserves and attending Columbia Law School in New York. After working as a corporate attorney for a New York law firm and finishing up his career with the Air Force Reserves, Tom went on to serve in various positions with healthcare companies and, during that time, witnessed first-hand the devasting impact of cancer on patients and their families. After arriving in Cary, Tom became aware of the wonderful work being undertaken by The Paula Takacs Foundation in supporting research for pediatric and adult sarcoma and considers it a privilege to now be part of the PTF Team.
