Tim Harris:
Born in 1986 with Down Syndrome, Tim moved to Roswell, New Mexico to attend Eastern New Mexico University in 2004. Tim earned certificates in Food Service and in Office Skills and worked at a variety of local restaurants. As entrepreneurs, the Harris family was looking for a way for Tim to succeed just like his brothers. After observing the effect Tim had on Red Robin restaurant and its customers, an idea emerged regarding Tim owning his own restaurant. In May of 2010, a lease was signed for a facility in Albuquerque and thus the beginning of Tims Place.
