Tom retired from the Air Force after 24 years of service to the country, attaining the rank of Lieutenant Colonel. Fitness remained a constant throughout his career not only as a requirement for service but as a passion as well. Football, baseball, basketball, cross country running and tennis were played throughout school and boxing was a requirement when he attended the Air Force Academy.
Tom was surprised in 2004 with a Crohn’s Disease diagnosis. There have been many ups and downs but tenacity and grit learned through boxing have helped his fight against the disease. FLY Kickbox looks forward to partnering with the Crohn’s and Colitis Foundation and other similar foundations to help bring fitness to healthy individuals and those fighting challenges alike.
