I am a creative, visionary guy. I have had my hands in construction, cabinet making, farming and am always trying to figure out how things are made. I enjoyed doing all these different types of work, but because whatever I do, I do with a purpose, I prayed asking God to show what else I am suppose to do before I leave this earth.

I had started experimenting with making chocolate from the beans and was fascinated by the flavors and process. I began testing small batches on family and friends and found such pleasure in seeing people discover the beauty of real, craft chocolate. At that point, I knew I would like to work together with my family to craft chocolate, let people see it being made and to use this as a way to make a positive impact in the lives of people, helping those in need and living my life with purpose to the end. 

TIM'S FAVORITES:

Chocolate - Whiskey milk (Even though I don't drink whiskey) 

Food - beans and rice and whatever else I cook up in the kitchen

Hangout - living life with my sweet wife and hanging with my family

Secret - I wake up smiling at 4:30am.

When I was just a kid, my favorite thing to do was take things apart and see what made them work. This wasn’t always greeted with cheers from my parents, but as I grew up I figured out how to put some of those things back together or make something new out of them! I still have a lot of fun being creative like that, and so when our family started experimenting with making chocolate, I was all there, especially because I could eat my project!

At Creo, we all wear multiple hats, or aprons, as the case may be. Most days you will find me maintaining our chocolate making equipment, organizing our online shipping, and maintaining our IT department.
