Timo, born and raised in Detroit, played youth soccer and became a devoted fan of the sport. He moved to Helena in the summer of 2019 with his young family, to be closer to relatives in Ennis and to find a supportive community.

He currently coaches his two young boys in Micro and Recreational, much to his enjoyment. After joining the board in 2022, he was part of the 2023 Strategic Plan development and is committed to seeing the growth and success of the Helena Youth Soccer Association into the future.

Outside of HYSA activities, Timo is a licensed architect, contributing to many community projects around Montana. He brings 12 years of experience in planning and project management to the board and aspires to elevate HYSA as the premier soccer club of Montana.
