Hey, I’m Tim.

I’m an experienced personal finance journalist, award-winning travel writer, editorial director for a print magazine, and passionate content marketer. I love crafting content that helps readers make informed financial decisions, no matter their background. My sweet spots are bank accounts, credit scores, taxes, and insurance, with a special focus on life on a tight budget — from paying the bills to traveling on a dime.

My background includes managing automotive digital marketing content (blogs, newsletters, landing pages, press releases) for more than 400 car dealerships; leading a team of editors and designers to create compelling B2B content marketing materials (economic analyses, whitepapers, infographics, video scripts, webinars) for brands such as Google, Microsoft, Amazon, and Salesforce; and managing a team of writers in delivering print and digital magazines about Walt Disney World and Disneyland Resort.

I currently serve as the editorial director for WDW Magazine and DLR Magazine and run a full-time freelance writing and editing business. As a freelance writer and editor, I create educational content for sites USA Today, Business Insider, Forbes, LendingTree, LendEDU, Retirement Living, and The Penny Hoarder; craft content (blogs, landing page material, articles) for finance brands such as SoFi and Chime; and provide copy edits for wealth management companies. I am well-versed in SEO and regularly provide comprehensive content updates for clients like Angi and HomeAdvisor.
