MEET TIM

Tim is a history-making entrepreneur and public servant with more than 30 years of experience in business, government and philanthropy. On November 18, 2019, he was sworn into a four-year term as Mayor of the City of Bowie, Maryland. Tim is the first African American to be elected Mayor in the 138-year history of the City.

ISSUES

As the mayor of a thriving city, and as one of America’s most successful minority business owners, Tim recognizes that our state will not be able to sustain its commitment to the priorities we share – from better schools and revitalized communities, to safer neighborhoods and leadership in the fight against climate change – if we do not manage our taxpayer dollars wisely.

Tim was exposed as a child to the generational poverty and segregation of New Orleans’ Seventh and Lower Ninth Wards. Through the opportunities that were first provided by a quality education, Tim succeeded in business and has gone on to become one of our country’s most successful and admired Black entrepreneurs. Tim’s commitment to public service is motivated by his desire to provide every Marylander – regardless of race, ethnicity, region or income - with those same opportunities for success.
