About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To live his life to the fullest with purpose and deliberation.

ABOUT ME

Tim is friendly, eco conscious, reliable, thoughtful, and likes to think of himself as non-materialistic! Much of life is about sharing experiences and caring for loved ones through expressions of generosity. In any case - being open, sharing ideas, questioning things that need it, and working towards creating more compassion for himself and others is a central theme. Tim is looking forward to meeting you and learning from our experiences together!

PHILOSOPHY

When we look back on our lives we want to know that we did the best thing in each moment. Learning to spend more time in the NOW opposed to the past and future.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Traveling to India was a great eye opener for me - made me really appreciate a hot shower every morning, climbing mountains gave me a sense of peace and reminded me of the power of nature, learning to dance is just wonderful in general, and going for a run on that perfect spring day is indescribable!
