Speakers Bio

Combining a lifetime of undiagnosed Asperger’s Syndrome, decades of employee to owner business experience, and living in the technical world including 12 years as a consultant specializing in the Geek world of data Tim gained a unique perspective about the, at times humorous, interactions and clashes between the tech and business world. After being diagnosed as an Aspie at 54, Tim undertook interviewing decision makers in the technical hiring world on what geeks did poorly. He quickly realized how broadly Asperger’s, Autism, and ASD thinking impacted the communication process. Tim has created solutions for the technically minded improving communication by leveraging their strengths. At the same time using his “Cloud Neurodiversity” idea he helps the business world understand the Spock like logical approach of the technical world.
