Like many on our team, Tom’s path to Teakwood has been anything but conventional! With a dual Bachelor of Science in biochemistry and toxicology from Nazareth College, Tom spent his initial post-uni years performing award-winning research on anti-Alzheimer’s therapeutics and working for large biomedical firms. But his passion for building things and a lifelong interest in residential construction–coupled with an entrepreneurial bent, having launched a mobile bar business with his wife after renovating a 1967 Shasta compact camper!–prompted his job pivot. Now a budding carpenter, Tom is as obsessed with homebuilding details as the rest of our team, applying his precise medical mind to honing his new craft and career. Tom joined Teakwood in 2024.
