Thomas MacDonald

I was born in a suburbs of Chicago in the summer of ’82. I joined what was at the time, a small family with 2 older brothers: John and Andrew. But that changed as 4 more brothers and sisters eventually joined the party: Matt, Jessica, David and Katie.

When I wasn’t biking to Dairy Queen, playing war with the Baker boys, or boxing in the Moulis’ basement, I played baseball, soccer, football and golf. The MacPac, as my Dad and Mom refer to our clan, spent summers out on the lakes of Minnesota, learning to fish and catch frogs for Dad and Grandpa Becker.

I graduated from Glenbard West High School, famous for being featured in the movie Lucas and ranking #7 on ESPN’s Best High School football stadiums. I was a member of Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity house at Purdue University in beautiful West Lafayette, Indiana. I moved back home after college graduation and have lived on the Northside of Chicago (but root for the true baseball team on the Southside) since 2005. In my free time, you can usually find me running, riding, swimming or playing in some athletic competition.
