Tom's Background

By Thomas Theodores

I learned about consensus building in my legal career where just saying no was never an option. I developed the skills needed to engage and empower communities as a graduate of the Coro Fellows Program in Public Affairs. I have served on the Historic Landmarks Board to help protect this city's unique character while striving to adapt for the future. These are my real, practical leadership skills and experience that I will bring to City Council.
