I want to utilize my Enfield experience to be your fighter in Hartford!
Years ago, Tom played quarterback at the College of the Holy Cross and briefly played professional football.
From there, he graduated from The University of Connecticut School of Law. Tom likes to say that law school was a fundamental experience for him because it's where you go to learn about your rights in society.
He got married to his wife Marilyn right after college, and they started a family in Enfield having two daughters.
As a young lawyer, he became an advocate for criminal justice reform. This stemmed from his work as a Connecticut Parole Officer while in law school. It's why he became a Criminal Justice Planner, a Director of a Criminal Justice Coordinating Committee and an Assistant Professor at Holyoke Community College teaching about criminal justice and juvenile delinquency.
With White Collar Crime being commonly ignored, Tom worked alongside the FBI on complex financial and real estate investigations. This resulted in Tom receiving a Certificate of Appreciation from former FBI Director Robert Mueller.
Farming runs deep in Tom's family, and that is why he is a lifetime member of Hartford County Farm Bureau and Connecticut Farm Bureau.
He's had a lot of fun along the way to include being a private pilot and a member of the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association (AOPA).
A Democrat for over 50 years, Tom previously served as Chairman of the Enfield Democratic Party and a member on the Connecticut Democrat State Central Committee.
Now Tom wants to take his unique background and passion for Enfield to be your fighter and advocate at the State Capitol in Hartford.
By self-funding his campaign, Tom is not taking donations or public funds. This means that he will owe no special-interest, and he will be donating his legislative salary to worthy causes in the 58th District.
