Tim began his career at MassDOT in 2008, after completing his master’s degree in Environmental Studies - Conservation Biology from Antioch University New England, where he studied moose and deer use of vernal pools. Tim has previously worked as a fisheries technician, ecology camp coordinator, and a woods survival instructor. While Tim has enjoyed working on many projects at MassDOT, his favorites are those that "result in multiple benefits to the transportation network, communities and the environment." Tim says that "these types of projects really exemplify MassDOT's mission to provide safe, reliable infrastructure that strengthens our economy and quality of life." In his new role as Environmental Program Engineer for Major Projects, Tim is most looking forward to assisting with strategic environmental initiatives to support the advertising program, and helping the Environmental Services Section grow and develop staff. Tim hopes to provide "the same level of exceptional mentorship" that he has received from MassDOT mentors throughout the years. When Tim isn't providing critical services for complex permitting projects or improving passage for fish and wildlife, he enjoys spending time outdoors with his family fishing, camping, gardening, hiking, and coaching.
