Board Member

Tim Thorpe holds extensive for-profit and non-profit knowledge and experience. His career history includes for-profit business planning, marketing and advertising with strong strategic, media and communications planning experience. Tim has also built strong non-profit expertise through experiences with various organizations focused on social services, arts, education, youth and the elderly.

When asked why he was passionate about MHIF and wanted to serve on the board, Tim answered, "With the aging of the baby boomers, heart health research and best practices become even more front and center. I've always admired the Minneapolis Heart Institute Foundation for the work they've accomplished and continue to do. I personally have had grandparents, parents - even me - be the beneficiaries of MHIF's research. I look forward to learning how I can support the organization as a board member, but also advocate and contribute to MHIF. I am honored to be part of this great organization."
