Tim has spent over 10 years working on rivers across the Pacific Northwest, including 9 years with the Bureau of Reclamation's River Systems and Restoration Group. He came to restoration engineering because he loves rivers. He floats them, fishes them, and knows them from the water as well as from the bank. That connection shapes how he approaches his work: with a genuine interest in understanding how a river system functions before determining how to help it, and a personal commitment to leaving it better than he found it.

Tim works across the full project lifecycle, from early-stage surveying and site assessments through design, permitting, and construction. He is skilled in site assessment and surveying, LiDAR terrain analysis, and hydraulic modeling, and brings that same hands-on commitment to design development, plan production, and construction oversight. Tim thrives in the collaborative environment that complex restoration projects demand, working alongside agencies, landowners, tribes, and technical teams as a unified project team rather than a collection of separate interests. He has built strong working relationships with a broad range of permitting agencies, project partners, and stakeholders across the Pacific Northwest and believes that getting everyone moving in the same direction is just as important as the technical work itself.
