Tom was an “original Auroran”-- one of the founding team that had glimpsed a vision of what self-driving could be and how together we could change the world for the better. Tom has been a friend, a mentor, and a confidant for so many people at Aurora. His fingerprints are everywhere on what we’ve built together as a team. Tom has kept us honest in our assessments of our work and visionary in our dreams for the future. He’s been the foundation of all of our integration milestones; Tom’s gentle push made us all do our best work.
Proceeds of this GoFundMe will go to his wife, Abby, and their children Tyler, Halee, and Noah.
