Tim De Pala
SENIOR Program and Project manager

Tim de Pala has spent over 20 years working with talented, diverse, and multi-disciplined creative teams in roles dedicated to program and project management, strategy, planning, multimedia production, resource allocation, talent acquisition, and mentoring. From film and VFX mediums to digital and events, Tim shows up with critical thinking, collaboration, and a firm commitment to a client's vision and values, along with good humor and an easygoing demeanor.

Tim believes that people, ideas, and the story they are trying to tell are the heart of any project or program. Nothing fires him up more than a sharp focus on organization, strategy, and collaboration to orchestrate a creative team’s path to success. He most recently demonstrated such success at Salesforce as a program manager directing the development and launch of foundational brand identities.

Born in the Philippines, Tim moved to Los Angeles, California, when he was just 13 years old. He got his Bachelor of Arts in Radio, Television, and Film from California State University in Long Beach, which allowed him to travel and live in many parts of the world, eventually landing in the Bay Area, where he met the love of his life. Tim and his wife now have a 12-year-old son, along with three cats, and a dog. 

Fun fact: Once upon a time, Tim was a legit rockstar. As a professional musician with a recording contract under a major record label, he toured the country extensively playing in front of audiences of all sizes, from 10 to 10,000. He still plays music on the side, but nowadays mostly enjoys family life and volunteering at his son's school and the Marin/San Francisco Food Bank.
