Enjoy a free beer with us at Camp Northend

Join us for this in-person event with Tim as he’ll be calling us via Zoom from Berkeley, CA. Having spent much of his career in agencies, Tim made the move to creative leadership roles on the client-side, serving as ECD for in-house agencies, including his current role at Away. Tim will speak about the opportunities and challenges in making that shift, what it takes to be successful on both agency- and client-side, and how the work is evolving at Away. You can learn more about Tim below or feel free to review his impressive credentials on LinkedIn.

Happy hour starts at 5:30pm with the presentation beginning at 6pm.

This event is free to our members using the membership promo code. All ticket buyers will also receive a free drink from NoDa Brewing.

A little about Tim

I was an advertising account guy for a long time. I started and sold a garden design business. I’ve been in two rock and/or roll bands. I was a writer/performer on a sketch comedy TV show. I started the catchphrase “that shit is kodak”. it hasn’t caught on yet. but that’s neither here nor there. I make advertising. and I've been lucky to make some great things, as well as a few mistakes, at FCB NY, Mullen NC, BBDO NY, and Wieden+Kennedy Portland before going in-house at Lyft and, now, at Away. If i may be so bold, I’ve been recognized by some very nice organizations: ADC, Addy, Archive, Cannes, Clio, D&AD, Directory, Echo, Epica, London International, Mercury, NY Festivals, Obie, One Show, Webby. I currently live on a cloud with my wife Vicki, son Lincoln and daughter Harriet.
