Some of my References for Speaking

Fay Connors, Twin Cities Prison Ministry Board Chair. Her contact information: 952-250-7613 Tcpm.fay@gmail.com:

“Are you looking for an impactful speaker? Someone who’s story is so compelling, it holds you on the edge of your seat. Timothy Cameron has changed lives because he has worked hard to change his. He started with less than most, survived a life that eventually, through hard work, forgiveness, reconciliation, and compassion, has led him to bring those same attributes to others. He walks his talk and continues to inspire others. Timothy has been a speaker for Twin Cities Prison Ministry workshops since 2014. His willingness to share his most vulnerable insights into his life has helped others to have hope for their future and to engage others in the work of prison ministry. Please feel free to contact me if you have questions about Timothy’s presentations for us.”

“Timothy was great to work with and our members of the association thoroughly enjoyed his talk. I have received a lot of feedback that his message touched people emotionally. His courage to tell his story and grit to improve his circumstances in life is an inspiration to everyone.”

“I had the pleasure of working with Timothy when I was an intern in April of 2016 at 180 Degrees, Inc. I sat in a class where he gave his very inspirational speech, which was based on not only courage in the power of forgiveness and resilience but also hope. I felt that Timothy was a very inspirational speaker and that he has a message that could be spread among many people as an example of what can happen when you truly want to implement change within your life and the life of others.”

‘I have known Timothy for over twenty years through MADD. Not only is Tim a close friend, but I also value his inclusion on MADD Victim Impact Panels. He is a very accomplished speaker that is able to reach youth through his experience. I would highly recommend Tim for any speaking engagement concerning youth or any age group, as Tim is a well-read individual with much to offer any organization.’

Daniel Maurer, Freelance Writer, Small Business Owner — Synecdoche, LLC — Mount Curve Press, reference written November 21, 2016,

“Timothy is the type of person who exudes kindness and humility. He had hired Mount Curve Press at Synecdoche (my company) to help him with his web presence. Working with him, I found he was clear in describing what he wanted the website to do for him. Above and beyond that, I have personally heard Timothy speak—his comfort level in speaking publicly is not only without a hint of anxiety; he interacts well with any audience. Timothy is a hard worker and endeavors to be on time for his appointments and will follow through to get the job done. I recommend him without hesitation for any job that deals with the public or demands a team-player to effect real change for communities.” - Daniel D. Maurer, Freelance Writer and Founder of Synecdoche, LLC and Mount Curve Press, a niche publisher in St. Paul, Minn.

“Whether among friends or with a formal audience, Timothy speaks with poetic honesty. His story and its presentation are always compelling. Timothy also listens. He listens with respect and an open mind. He is humble in his passion for healing and learning. I’m honored to call him my friend since 2007.”

Revenue Cycle Coordinator at Fraser, Reference written April 14, 2015.

“Timothy has a message and expresses it beautifully. He tells his story honestly and invitingly. I was moved to tears. I also work with Timothy in a community program where he is a very effective communicator. He has the ability to connect with anyone he meets. It is my pleasure to work with Timothy and consider him a friend.”

“I have arranged for Timothy to speak twice to groups I was involved with and have heard him speak on several other occasions. His life story is amazing and compelling. He delivers his message of faith and love with an informal yet powerful style and approach. His gentle, thoughtful presence is a sharp contrast to the shocking, painful experiences of his past; he is a living example of the power of human redemption. People who have heard Timothy speak tell me how he changed their lives...I know that he changed mine.”

Jody Klescewski, International Sales Manager at Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation.Reference written on March 12, 2013.

“Timothy has been a great asset to the projects we’ve worked on together. I have found his speaking skills exceptional, his attention to detail solid, and his attitude to be "positive" and "can do," as well. He has an amazing "customer service" orientation that is beneficial to service within the philanthropic community. I believe if you provide Timothy with an opportunity to succeed in the next phase of his career, he will. Feel free to contact me at any time regarding Timothy.”
