Meet Tim. Tim is a co-founder of The Tokenist. Originally from Kalamazoo, Michigan, Tim is a mechanical engineer by training and has been investing his whole life. He started his career with GE in engineering and operations management where he held various leadership roles before leaving to pursue an MBA (he is a proud former co-chair of the Milton Friedman Group at Chicago Booth). After business school, Tim spent several years with Baird Capital where he made private equity investments in consumer and industrial companies. He left Baird to found Protective Technologies Capital in 2018, where he continues to make private equity investments in family businesses looking for help with succession planning. Tim lives in Chicago, where he enjoys watching Michigan football and basketball and traveling with his wife Kristen. Like Sia, he also likes telling jokes. However, his wife adamantly insists that he not share his “dad jokes” publicly so he reluctantly sticks to writing about finance and technology.
