“Tom and Lin Baumbach, of TLC, love to share their passion for food and catering with anyone who sits at their table. Moreover, they believe in being of service and giving back whenever possible. Partnering with Starry Foundation is especially meaningful for Lin, who worked as a Music Therapist for over a decade before joining Tom in the catering world.”
