Outside the Office

Timothy and his wife live near Central Park, and they’re in the park every day—even if it’s raining or the middle of winter. They’re often accompanied by their Golden Retriever, Penny.

The couple are world travelers, often visiting Europe and the Caribbean. Timothy himself has visited five out of seven continents and is working on getting to Africa and Antarctica. Originally a Texan, he’s also a big fan of the Houston Astros and University of Texas sports.

Community Leadership

Between undergrad and law school, Timothy served as a college access coach in Austin, Texas through AmeriCorps, assisting underserved high school students with the college application process.
