Business Operations Consulting
Hi, I'm Timothy
I'm a business operations consultant who started his career in the entertainment industry working for leading visual effects houses like Lucasfilm's Industrial Light and Magic and Cinesite. I've spent the last 10+ years helping dozens of teams across finance and Web3 to optimize their productivity, processes, and approaches.
My approach involves identifying inefficiencies, optimizing resource allocation, and implementing innovative strategies tailored to your unique business needs. From improving content management to implementing a digital transformation strategy, I am here for you.
"Tim conceptualized and led a range of novel initiatives at Franklin Templeton that produced meaningful business results in several key marketing units. He introduced novel machine-learning approaches for portfolio construction, developed new business insights by mining existing document libraries, and drove operational efficiency by automating a significant portion of our recurring business reports. His efforts were so innovative and well-received that he received an internal innovation program award and recognition across the firm."
