Tommy is a 30 year fire service veteran, lieutenant, and mental health advocate who has dedicated his life to changing the culture of public service. After battling depression, PTSD, and anxiety from years of service on the front line, Tommy now uses his voice to break the stigma around mental health for first responders. He authored the Book "Unseen Battles - The Price of Duty in a Life of Trauma and Sacrifice". He is the founder of First Responder Support LLC. Through powerful storytelling and lived experience Tommy speaks to the silent troubles many first responders carry, and offers a message of Hope, healing, and purpose. Tommy shares with us his story going back to his youth, entering the fire service, some of the difficult calls he experienced along the way, how those calls impacted him, his struggles, his growth, and his calling to serve those who serve.
