OUR TEAM

Tommy was diagnosed with Lyme Disease in 2010. After years of struggling, he was referred the Dean Center for Tick-Borne Illness in 2017 and his healing journey has only progressed since then. Going through Lyme Disease treatment has been major life changing experience for Tommy. Now that he is feeling well again, Tommy focuses his free time on actively advocating and giving back to the Lyme Community in any way that he can. He is a certified peer mentor with the Global Lyme Alliance and aspires to provide hope, reflection, and inspiration to those who are in need.

Tommy joined the Ride Out Lyme team as our Grants Director in the Summer of 2019. Since then he has taken on the role as Ride Out Lyme’s Executive Director. Looking forward to working closely with the Lyme community, building strategic partnerships and supporting Ride Out Lyme’s core values and initiatives by fostering collaborative partnerships with philanthropic organizations to raise funds used to provide treatment, wellness, and support programs for Lyme patients and their caregivers. The ultimate gift in this life is to be able to help patients navigate their financial challenges faced by the treatment of Lyme Disease as he can relate to this challenge first-hand. Tommy received his B.A. in Business Management from the University of Massachusetts, Lowell.
