Your message. Delivered with a punchline.
A customized comedy keynote that keeps your audience laughing, listening and remembering what matters.
He understands the stage and the workplace
Across more than 800 live audience appearances, Tim has entertained national corporate conferences, leadership retreats, training seminars, nonprofit fundraisers, church conferences and comedy clubs across the country.
Before comedy, he earned a business degree from the University of Tennessee and held leadership roles with multiple large companies. He knows the everyday challenges organizations face because he has worked through them himself.
Today Tim combines that business background with years of live-stage experience. Storytelling, observational comedy and genuine Southern charm make meaningful ideas easier to hear and much harder to forget.
The energy of a comedy show. The purpose of a keynote.
Most audiences can spot a standard speech before it starts. They settle in, check their phones and start thinking about lunch. Comedy changes the atmosphere.
