About me

In his nearly 30 years at Kodak, Tim's career began at the manufacturing headquarters in Rochester NY, where he had technical responsibilities in motion picture product development, product engineering and quality management. As the North American Sales Manager in Kodak’s Hollywood Office – and later as Vice President, Sales and Marketing, for Technicolor Entertainment Services -- Tim worked directly with movie studios, labs, cinematographers, indie filmmakers, archivists, and others. Tim joined PRO-TEK Vaults in 2016 from Reflex Technologies where he served as President of this archival scanning company.

Tim has an extensive and wide-ranging understanding of the capabilities and challenges of film and video, including the issues and opportunities it presents for archivists as they face aging media libraries and an increasingly digital future. Tim enjoys movies and golf.
