COPE Spotlight
Pandas - Communications Manager
Tommy Owens, or Pandas, has been gaming since he was very young with support from his mother. He really got into gaming with Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 on his Xbox 360, where he reached the highest level. The thing he loves more than gaming is snowboarding. Tommy has been snowboarding since he was 10 years old and at 12 years old he started venturing into the terrain park and learning how to do tricks on his snowboard! He was able to become involved with Cope through his friend, Blackline also known as Cameron. Tommy met Blackline at a campground that their families are both a part of. They became close friends and from there he was able to get involved and secure a job as COPE’s Social Media Manager.
