About the Author

Timothy Adam is a self-taught metal artist and a certified Mig welder. He started designing modern metal furniture in 2004. He built his first piece in Baltimore with his sister-in-law, who is a furniture designer. He found his passion in metal and kept on designing and building. He struggled for three years to make a name in local galleries in the Grand Rapids, Michigan, area before a friend introduced him to Etsy in February 2007, and it completely changed his business. He started creating a jewelry line and has not turned back since. In November 2007, he had to quit his full-time day job because his passion of creating metal was becoming a dream come true! He is now selling all over the world through his Etsy shop. He also has wholesale accounts around the country with galleries, museums and salons.
