Tim Parsons
Northrop Grumman , Site Manager, Program Manager, Principal Investigator
I grew up in the southwest deserts of California, Nevada and Arizona as the youngest of four children in the 1960s. My father was an Air Force test pilot and my mother was an artist. We moved to Florida where I finished high school, married my high school sweetheart and together raised twin daughters. I am active in the church and community, particularly with service organizations dedicated to young children through high school. I enjoy running, tennis, golf and aerial photography. I am excited to meet new people who share some of my passions. I have a masters in software engineering and by day, work for a leading global security company. I also enjoy travel for work and leisure which includes visiting my now adult daughters living in Manhattan.
