A lawyer by profession, Tom’s career spanned over 40 years in the specialized field of telecommunications law.  During most of his career, he was a partner in a major Washington, DC law firm, representing U.S. and international communications companies on a wide variety of regulatory and legislative issues. 

 

Tom has been an active and longtime supporter of CaringMatters.  He began his involvement in 2008 as a volunteer in the Helping Hands program.  He served for many years a member of the board of directors, including serving as Board Chair.  He also participated in several of the children’s education and bereavement support programs, including serving as a Big Buddy in the weekend bereavement camp for kids. 

 

In 2018, Tom and his wife Clare relocated from Chevy Chase to Key West, Florida.  Although the distance now prevents them from being actively involved in CaringMatters programs, Tom and Clare are pleased to continue their financial support and are proud to be long-distance members of the CaringMatters family.
