Avery has embraced Northern Lights’ agency offerings, working closely with Sr. Creative Director Keith Kopnicki on network promo and co-branded projects concepted and executed in-house. They recently collaborated on spots for E! and The Voice in conjunction with Fashion Week as well as a series of one minute content pieces for Animal Planet’s Puppy Bowl.

“Northern Lights is an industry leader, we are always working to elevate creative and produce the best work possible,” adds Avery. “The editors here are incredibly talented and in tune with our clients and the needs of our rapidly changing industry. They have been very supportive of helping me grow and I’m excited to embrace my new role.”

After graduation, Tim landed an internship with a Minor League Baseball team and soon grew into their full-time position of Director of Video Production, editing broadcast commercials and promos. He then moved to NYC and joined Northern Lights in 2013 and continues to work across the company’s slate of projects. When not in an edit bay, Avery spends his time perfecting his archery skills and enjoying board games with friends.
