Tim's Story
Life
I haven't seen many high school classmates since HS, but I've lived in various towns in NJ since Vineland (Deptford for 3 years, Washington Twp. for 13 years, and now S. Harrison Twp (near Mullica Hill) for 14 years). I spent 30 years at Campbell Soup Company in the Information Technology department, most recently as Senior IT Manager - Business Process Optimization. I led the startup team for RFID tagging products, and worked with retail customers collaboratively to exchange product information electronically. I am currently President and Principal Consultant at Bates Solutions LLC, an IT Management Consulting practice. I recently started in an IT Manager position at Pinnacle Foods in Cherry Hill, NJ.
I married my wife, Joy, in 1990. I have...Expand for more
been blessed with 3 daughters (currently 19, 17 and 14). Joy is a stage 3B breast cancer survivor since her diagnosis in 2006.
I love to travel, but don't seem to get enough of it! I've been to Canada, Mexico, Spain, Germany, England, Israel, Egypt, Greece, and hope to see more in my life.
My daughters are very involved in classical music in Philadelphia and Christian music in our church, and have many lessons, ensembles, etc every week, and many hours of practicing in our home all the time. We have two pianos, violins, two violas, a cello, and three clarinets. My girls all play piano, and then can take on a second/third instrument if they want.
We also have a Retriever mix dog, two indoor cats, and an aquarium!
Hope to hear from some of you!
