/ Writer / *Art Director*

Meet Tim Goetze, a creative force brimming with fresh perspectives. Roots are split between the vibrant streets of the San Francisco Bay Area and the serene mountains of Northern California, giving him a distinctive "oomph" that stems from his eclectic and diverse upbringing. With a lively two-year track in the creative industry and a lifetime of creative mischief behind him, Tim is an enthusiastic art director grounded in experience yet invigorated with a contemporary approach. He has a proven track record of leveraging the power of visual narratives to unravel complex business problems.

Believing fervently in the power of creativity to overcome even the most formidable business challenges, Tim crafts work that is not only deeply rooted in brand and product truths but also makes a lasting impact on culture, brand affinity, and sales metrics.As a leader, Tim fosters a naturally collaborative atmosphere, always conscious that the best work emerges from a team united by a shared mission and mutual respect. He knows how to have fun along the way, making the process as enjoyable as the outcomes. Tim is not just a team player but a creative leader with an eye for detail and a penchant for innovative problem-solving, striking a balance between experience and novelty.

To him, creativity is more than a professionβ€”it's a therapeutic escape, a ritual of rejuvenationβ€”his version of self-care. When not wielding his digital canvas, Tim is often found embracing the art of the everyday: large scale graffiti murals, sipping on a multitude of teas as though they are an elixir of imagination, etching ideas onto any scrap of paper, creating and generating wonders of AI art and motion @SynthPuddle, and on an eternal quest to find that one typeface that feels like it holds the secrets of design itself.

Warmly,

Testimonial

Tim has been my student in several classes at Miami Ad School so I've had ample opportunity to see him grow and evolve as a creative professional.

Tim has a laid back, California vibe about him but don't be deceived - he is very disciplined and dedicated to learning and growing. He is not afraid to experiment and try new things. He asks a lot of questions and likes to dig deeply into possible solutions rather than stopping at the first idea he has which, as we all know, is a rare and wonderful thing.

He is good about giving effective and constructive feedback to his fellow students. He is not afraid to share his perspective during class discussions but he is respectful about it, never trying to force anyone else to agree with him.

In my opinion, Tim has the perfect combination of being a good person as well as a very strong creative. I know he'd be an excellent addition to any creative department fortunate enough to have him.

Please feel free to contact me with any questions

What you’ll learn

WHAT ABOUT OFF THE CLOCK?

  • Illustrator Or figma.
    But Photoshop is my true love.

  • Rather than settling for one genre, I've embarked on a personal quest to unearth the musical treasures of each continent and country, delving into their cultural soundscapes across generations. From 1970s African Funk to Korean psychedelic rock, 1940s Egyptian jazz to the vibrant beats of vintage Brazilian melodies.

    My Diverse playlists weave through ALL genres β€” It's a perpetual, personal adventure that continuously enriches my auditory experience with the world’s vast rhythms and tunes and along the way, I get fully immersed in many different cultures.

Other Creative Endeavor
