My name is Tom. I have lived in Connecticut for my entire life except for when I spent 9 months traveling North America in 2018/2019. I am easy going and I have a good sense of humor.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach math, music, jokes and I can teach you about myself. I can learn about new people, places, things and ideas.
