Biography

    • Starting out, Tim was cast as an extra (bad guy) in several roles. This is how he came known by the name The Atlanta Toughguy! Since then, he's been cast as a gang member, soldier, pilot, father, military man, killer, business man, and others. Tim's greatest strength as an actor is his ability to pull from his real-life experiences.

Trivia

  • Flight instructor in single engine airplanes, multi-engine airplanes, instruments, and helicopters.
  • Tim ran for Sheriff in his county in 2008.
  • Earned the nickname "Toughguy" when he started out in acting as an extra. They'd always say, "Send the tough-guy to us." Then someone added Atlanta to it to become the "Atlanta Toughguy".
  • Broke into acting when he saw a newspaper article looking for extras to be prisoners in a movie being filmed in his hometown.
  • Tim volunteers for various charities. He flies for Mercy Flight Southeast, which transports patients free of charge to their medical treatments, and works with Warriors & Horses, a program that couples wounded veterans with horse riding therapy.

Quotes

  • I tend to roll the tough guy image in with the truly soft heart that I have, to then be the hard core, rough guy, that people fear kinda dude, yet come to love.
  • Yes, I've had a few scraps in my day, as a bouncer, bodyguard, and plain ole street-fighter.
  • I enjoy helping others. I always say that no one has ever helped someone else get to the top, without getting closer themselves.
  • Folks get really surprised when they meet me and see just how much of a "nice guy" I truly am, even though I look like I'll break them in half! So, I'll intimidate if I have to, and be nice when I can. (laughing)
  • In regards to motivation I'd tell my soldiers. "If this training for combat makes you throw up, just suck that stuff back up and drive on...!"
