Tommy went on to obtain his JD/MBA from Duke University. He had a successful career as a management consultant at McKinsey & Company before leaving to found Tom & Jenny’s, a candy company that creates natural, sugar-free, and tooth-friendly candies. Today, Tommy serves as Nourish’s Board Chair and, together with Sindhura, is raising their two children in Durham, NC. Join us for an informal conversation with Tommy.
