Born with Tourettes Syndrome, Tim grew up with severe symptoms (currently controlled with medication) of jerking his limbs involuntarily, facial tics as well as self-abusive behaviors.

With the help of his parents and the support of two teachers, Tim learned to cope with this devastating disorder and achieve success in two different fields. Today, Tim presents captivating school assembly programs as a motivational school speaker, as well as high-energy keynote presentations for colleges and organizations throughout the country.

Tim graduated from Clarion University of Pennsylvania in 1984 with a B.S. in Habilitative Science. He worked in progressively responsible positions in the mental health/mental retardation field before becoming the Executive Director of a Center for Independent Living in 1989. In 1992 he decided to pursue his lifelong dream of becoming a professional comedy magician. He has worked with many national stars and celebrities in his career as an entertainer.

In 1995 he decided to share his experiences and knowledge to help others fulfill their dreams. As a full-time motivational youth speaker and keynote presenter, Tim travels across the country motivating and inspiring students, teachers, human service professionals and corporate and association audiences through his various programs. He lives what he teaches and believes in the power of EVERYONE'S potential.
