A life-long resident of Albuquerque, New Mexico, Tim attended the University of New Mexico and obtained a degree in electrical engineering followed later by an MBA.  Tim has had the privilege of being inducted into the University of New Mexico, Anderson School of Management Hall of Fame in recognition of his contributions to the community and success in starting the technology company WaveFront Sciences.

 

The experience of growing WaveFront Sciences from "two guys in a garage," to venture capital funding and eventual acquisition by a public company, provided Tim with a broad range of business experiences.  Developing technology, managing people, and surviving difficult economic times all provided valuable learning experiences.  He shares these experiences with his members in C12 and also mentors budding entrepreneurs in New Mexico's growing high tech community.  Tim has always loved the business world and is excited to expand this world to include marketplace ministry, helping Christian business owners realize the potential their businesses have for the Kingdom of God, through C12.

 

Tim is passionately devoted to his wife, Diana, and three children (Tiana, Jacob and Noah).  His interests include scuba diving and sailing (both rather ironic pursuits given that he has always lived in the high desert of Albuquerque).
