About Me

Hi, I’m Tim Hamby. Welcome to my site! It’s everything a blog shouldn’t be: unfocused, inconsistent, not well-promoted … mostly just a bunch of stuff that I like, find interesting or worth digitally archiving for one reason or another somewhere other than Facebook. That said, it’s also kind of like a desk drawer. You might not know what all’s in there, but if you sift through it long enough, you might find a few cool little knick-knacks.

My site is heavy on surfing, travel and outdoors; abundant iPhonography (my tastes run to landscapes- especially beaches, marshes and other coastal settings); numerous articles, including many published works on surfing and action sports, marketing, advertising, branding and design; some posts about my family and friends (married for 27 years with two daughters, one a recent grad from the University of Florida, who won the Dean’s Medal from the College of Liberal Arts & Sciences; the other a freshman in the Honors Program at FAU); a few interesting music videos … I think that’s about it!

Professionally, I’m a Creative Director for Beson4, a full-service digital marketing, advertising, branding & design firm located in Jacksonville, FL.

I previously worked as a freelance marketing and creative consultant, founded a very successful real estate marketing, branding & design firm (Renaissance Creative) which I ran for about 15 years (1996-2011), served as Executive Director for the Southeast Volusia Advertising Authority overseeing tourism marketing in New Smyrna Beach and the surrounding areas, Director of Social Media at Web.com (Nasdaq: WEB), and Director of Corporate Communications for HomeASAP, a real estate technology firm.
