I’m Tim, founder of Stump & Root. Over the years, I’ve seen one major issue hold businesses back: a lack of cohesive branding. When your visual identity and your message aren’t aligned, customers lose clarity and trust, and growth slows down.
That’s why I help businesses like yours clarify their message, create consistent visuals, and build marketing strategies that work. Whether through logo design, video, photography, social media, or website strategy, everything I create is built to help you connect with your audience, earn their trust, and move them to action.
In 2024, I launched Stump & Root to help businesses break free from the cycle of unclear messaging, inconsistent visuals, and marketing that doesn’t convert.
After years in marketing, design, and strategy, I saw firsthand how even great products and services can struggle without a strong brand foundation. My goal was simple: give businesses the clarity, creativity, and strategy they need to stand out and grow.
Branding is my passion, and I’m committed to constant learning and improvement. As a Christian, I approach every project with integrity, excellence, and care, treating each business as if it were my own, avoiding quick fixes, and focusing on results that last.
These values guide how I work with every client and shape the results I deliver.
I honor God by creating with purpose, reflecting His creativity, and serving clients with integrity and care.
I deliver exceptional work, setting high standards so your brand stands out with quality you can trust.
I uphold transparency, honesty, and ethical practices in every partnership, ensuring clarity and trust at every step.
I build long-lasting client relationships through true collaboration, listening well, & keeping your goals at the center.
The best creative solutions start with listening. You know your business better than anyone — my job is to understand your brand, your audience, and your goals so we can create a plan that works.
Every business has unique needs, so I build growth plans tailored to you. Whether you need a website overhaul, social media strategy, video content, branding design, or business consulting, I combine strategy and creativity to help your business thrive.
At Stump & Root, I’m dedicated to building brands that stand out, connect with the right audience, and create lasting growth.
Learn More About My Process
The name Stump & Root comes from Isaiah 11:1, which speaks of a shoot growing from the stump of Jesse — a picture of hope, restoration, and new life fulfilled in Jesus Christ.
For me, it’s more than a name. It’s a reminder that even when something feels cut down, it can grow again. That’s how I approach branding, helping businesses move from feeling stuck (the stump) to thriving with clear, strong brands (the root). I provide the foundation, clarity, and creative direction to restore your brand and help it flourish.
The name originates from Isaiah 11, which describes a shoot emerging from the stump of Jesse and a root growing to bear fruit. It speaks of the Messiah, found in Jesus. It also reminds us that even when something looks cut down, there’s potential for new life and growth. That’s how we approach branding—helping businesses grow strong, deep roots, and thrive.
