Tim’s career spans over thirty years as a business owner, corporate executive, consultant, and scholar. He spent the first sixteen years of his career as an entrepreneur, creating, building, and managing several successful companies, including a commercial banking firm that catered to vendors and manufacturers using equipment financing as a catalyst for driving incremental sales. This business was acquired in 1996 and went through multiple mergers and acquisitions that ultimately led Tim to join Citigroup’s CitiCapital division as Vice President. For the next seven years he managed the business technology sector responsible for Cisco Systems, Oracle, and other major companies, building this group’s sales to over $200 million. As a consultant, coach, and Chairman of Funding, his clients have included well known companies such as Ericsson, Lucent, Corning Optics, Herman Miller, Haworth, Steelcase, as well as many small and midsize businesses.

I am a private investor who has spent the past 11 years in the financial services industry and looking to invest in something I am truly passionate about. This consists predominantly of food and beverage, hospitality and real estate, but am also open to creative ideas in the internet/e-commerce space. My goal is to find entrepreneurs with creative concepts so that I can (i) learn about/gain experience from the venture and (ii) achieve reasonable rate of return (15-20% over a 10yr horizon).
