About Tom Loveland

I am tall and skinny. A 5th-generation Oregonian (think “wagon train”) and long-time resident of Baltimore, Maryland. An entrepreneur. A quiet guy who occasionally takes on big challenges. Passionate about helping Baltimore become a world-class city, with greater opportunity for all.
