Tim is the kind of man Tennessee needs more of.

A devoted family man and man of deep faith, Tim lives by a simple code: tell the truth, act with integrity, and love your neighbor. Not as a slogan. As a way of life.

Tim is a carpenter and proud small business owner who carries on the timeless traditions of fine craftsmanship — and takes genuine joy in passing those skills on to the next generation. Whether he's teaching a young person how to use power tools properly or helping a family design & build spaces that work for the way they live, Tim brings quality, care, and creativity to everything he builds.

He's also a man with his hands in the dirt — literally. Tim is passionate about farming and believes teaching the city folk how to grow their own food is one of the most meaningful gifts you can give a community. Dirty Hands, Clean Money he's always saying.

Tim will tell you himself: he's a fish out of water in Nashville. A country boy in the big city, he fits in better with the hardworking folks of Grundy County than with the liberal elite that dominates Nashville politics. But that's exactly what makes him different — and exactly what makes him electable. Tim doesn't just speak to one corner of Tennessee. He speaks to its heart.

He has his eyes on the future — for his family, his community, and this Republic. He's the most honest man in Tennessee and his moral compass always points North. Tim Lanier knows love is an action word and nothing he says can prove his worth, it can only be shown. He holds those around him accountable for their actions that tradition will continue in Washington.

Because that's what Tim does. He builds things that last.
