he/him

Timmy O'Neill is a professional rock climber dedicated to outdoor adventure and social impact. He is a co-founder and former executive director of Paradox Sports, a nationwide adaptive-climbing nonprofit.

Timmy recently made his directorial debut with the short film “Soundscape,” which shares the sightless experience of climbing a mountain via echolocation, touch and imagination.

“I am part of nature, and the natural world is my most meaningful home.”

When he’s not climbing, directing, speaking at events or writing, Timmy plays drums in the psychedelic surf rock trio, Par Avion, and is a keen bibliophile.
