And establish and maintain a strong employer brand. Tim currently lives in Atlanta, GA. He's a damn-Yankee from Michigan. Tim is a bona fide nerd who enjoys staying active. When he isn't researching and writing helpful blog posts for the RPOA, you'll find him running the trails in the Georgia mountains, playing tennis, or exploring various golf courses. (When one sucks at golf, exploration seems like the only option.) On the nerdy side, Tim is a philosophy hobbyist. He's currently working on a philosophical novel. Knowing this project will take him a lifetime to write, Tim writes short stories to stay creative. He likes visiting art museums, attending the symphony, and punk rock shows for inspiration. |
