Elliott has been a Rotarian since 2009, when he joined the Sharon Club in District 7950. There, he served as club treasurer, president for the 2013– 2014 Rotary year, and then as treasurer of that club’s Charitable Foundation.
 
After moving in 2015 to Westborough, Elliott transferred to that town's Rotary club. He became active on several committees, served as assistant treasurer, and as club president in 2019 – 2020. He has also served as an assistant district governor, is a Paul Harris Fellow, and is a graduate of the Rotary Leadership Institute.

Outside of Rotary, Elliott serves as a board member of Westborough Connects, a grassroots organization focusing on diversity and inclusion. Professionally, he is co-owner of a manufacturer’s representative firm that distributes infrared thermal-imaging cameras to military and scientific clientele.

Elliott lives in Westborough with his wife, Reina Rego, and their two dogs. Together they share a combined total of five adult children living locally and in Tel Aviv, Washington, DC, and Denver.
