Description

Timmy O'Neill is a professional rock climber, first ascensionist and public speaker. He has dedicated his life to international exploration and giving back through ‘adventure impact’ - the combination of outdoor adventure and social impact.

He has climbed, without ropes, buildings such as the Chicago Tribune Tower, and in 2001, along with Dean Potter, set the-then world speed record for the "Nose" climb on El Capitan, completing it in three hours and twenty-four minutes. He lead a four-day ascent of El Cap with Warren McDonald, a double above-the-knee leg amputee and is co-founder of Paradox Sports, a non-profit that integrates individuals with disabilities into outdoor recreation. He also volunteers as an ophthalmic tech on the African continent to help cure preventable blindness with CureBlindness.org.

More recently, he founded Joy Merchants, which offers outdoor retreats, with the intention of strengthening personal relationships via curated individual exercises and both trail and fireside conversation. He also produced the award-winning films “Urban Ape, “ and "Return2Sender", and co-wrote the non-fiction comedy "Across the Atlas.”

He believes everybody is radiating love and promise, and has been described by his contemporaries as intelligent, kind and fiercely passionate about the wellbeing of others.
