Born in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, Tim was raised across Alberta as he and his family travelled due to his father’s role as a Geophysicist for Shell Canada. With this upbringing, Tim was mentored at a young age to be a leader in the exploration and development sector of the petroleum and mining industries. Fittingly, Tim founded Synterra Technologies in 1997, where he assumes the role of President.

Tim brings more than 40 years’ of seismic experience to the management team at Synterra. Tim has exceptional skills in project management, health, safety, and environment management, and First Nation/heritage relation management. Pair these skills with his ability to accurately anticipate program costs in a variety of complex conditions and terrain, and the result is the execution of a project that is consistently acquired with no lost time accidents, on schedule, and within budget.

Tim’s experience was acquired working in North America, Asia-Pacific, South America, and Africa.
