Tim’s career as an entrepreneur started when he was in middle school, selling software and computers to the parents of his friends. A few years later in high school, he was employing six of his friends at his Tech Consulting firm, with his biggest customer being the original Empire Collateral pawn shop. Next, Tim went to college to (in his words) “not miss out on the opportunity of being a rounded person.” As an already successful businessman, Tim found that college is most rewarding when your goal is to learn who you are and to learn how to think.
After his undergraduate, Tim worked for Mitsubishi in Japan (an aside, he’s fluent in English, Spanish and Japanese) and then continued his education at Sloan School of Business, earning an MBA. Moving towards the present day, he spent several years as a Principal at Boston Consulting Group before starting CIC and later on Venture Cafe.
