Tim Robinson has taken on the mighty mission of tackling the invasive lionfish crisis. But that’s not all – Tim is a lifelong entrepreneur with deep roots in philanthropic endeavors. In 2021, Tim made a bold leap and snatched up ZooKeeper, transforming it from a humble, one-color, garage-built startup into a global contender in the hunting and ocean conservation arena. For the past several years, Tim has been a vibrant force, creating challenges and paving paths for others.
