Timm design is owned and operated by me, Matt Timm.
It started at age 6 taking drawing classes at a local studio and from there it was art classes as much as possible till I graduated High School. I was drawing, painting, or creating every chance I got. I decided to pursue a degree in Design as the creative side of the field really inspired me. But if I’m being honest, it's the problem-solving that keeps me coming back.
After graduating I was encouraged to pursue a job in an Ad agency and while that idea was appealing, I really craved the freedom and flexibility to work with my own clients. I decided to jump straight into freelancing and have been loving it for the last 9+ years. Not everyone gets to pursue their childhood desire and passion or do the job they have always wanted. I feel so fulfilled working everyday doing the thing I love.
I couldn't have done any of this without the support and love of my amazing wife and three children. On the weekends we love to jump on the trampoline, spend days at the beach and with each other, friends, and family.
Experience
If you are looking for a designer who is a team player and is able to thrive in a fast paced environment then I would be a great fit. Having experience with in-house creative teams and various agencies as well as operating as a business owner and project lead means I have unique insight into the challenges stakeholders face and how to bring ideas into reality.

Branding and Website Design
United Hair Care
2022 - 2024
I started at United Hair Care in late 2022 as a Graphic Designer working on their inhouse brands. I spent six months redesigning existing products including revitalizing a product line that was about to be cut due to a lack of sales, after our packaging redesign sales surged and became a top seller at Sally beauty within a few months of the new design hitting the store shelves.
I then transitioned into their sole UI/UX designer responsible for their only DTC website. I was given limited power to alter the site but with consistent updates to product images and marketing materials sales increased nearly 30% year over year.
