Tim has recently joined Ogilvy NY as Executive Director of Production and couldn't be more thrilled to join such an incredible team. Previous to this position Tim was EVP, Head of Production, Team Verizon at McCann NY. And formerly, the Director of Integrated Production at Publicis NY and Saatchi NY, where he oversaw all video, digital, stills, and experiential production, as well as business affairs for the two agencies. His favorite part of this role is mentoring young members of the department and challenging them to become experts in the craft of production. Prior to these leadership positions Tim was an Executive Producer who had the luck to travel the world and collaborate with amazing talent to create work on such brands as Verizon, Citi, Goldfish, Diesel, Heineken, Walmart, L'Oreal, Wendy's and many others. His work has been lauded with every major advertising award including multiple Gold Lions at Cannes, The One Show, D&AD and the coveted "I saw your spot on tv last night...it was all right" award from his dad.
In his non-work life, Tim has found time to run twelve NYC marathons, become a perfectly average tap dancer and hike in most of our National Parks. Tim is a firm believer in leading with kindness. His favorite word is "Yes". His least favorite word is actually two words: "Flight Cancelled."
