Timm Chiusano is a very talented media executive with a corporate 9-5 managing a team and small business clients under his purview. He's also got a growing side hustle as a very unlikely social media influencer with more than 1M followers on TikTok as well as an expanding audience on other platforms.

How did this happen? How did he do it?

In my observation, at the heart of Timm's success and popularity is the fact that he's all of us. That is, he's a mild-mannered guy living in Brooklyn with his beautiful family trying his best to live life to the fullest.

He has stress and struggles at home and work. He battles with being in ruts and mild depressive episodes. Life is wonderful and difficult. Sound familiar?

He's a husband and father living his life out loud in public for all of us to see --and relate to. He's up at 4:00am to catch up on work stuff, then takes his daughter to school...and piano lessons...and karate...and school plays. His wife is a hard worker as well and has inspired Timm to start running more and taking good care of himself. It's a throw back and hybrid to Norman Rockwell meets Casey Neistat at the height of his daily vlog days.

Now with powerful representation and backing from Night Media, the same firm that reps MrBeast, it just seems like a matter of time before Timm quits his day job to go all-in on his storytelling and content creation career.
