Contributor Limelight: Tim Schoof

Starting his time as a Contributing Writer in December of 2019, Tim Schoof has defined his role by covering community-based stories ranging from articles about distilleries and Home Glow Hydroponics to this month’s article on the Suspension Syndicate bike-repair shop. “Personally, I wanted to get involved with SLUG because I thought the magazine was a great diving-in point for the arts and culture scene, and it’s connected me with businesses and experiences I never would’ve known about otherwise,” says Schoof. Currently going to grad school for public policy at the University of Utah, Schoof aspires to publish a novel or two in the near future. Check out his most recent article here.
