A dedicated cellist for over 17 years, Timothy Winter brings a unique combination of artistic skill and technical precision to his music. He began his studies with Bill Grubb at Butler University and also worked with contemporary music specialist Craig Hultgren. Now based in Los Angeles, he is currently mentored by Steve Erdody.

Timothy is an experienced and versatile performer, having played at numerous weddings as a soloist, in duets, and as part of a string quartet. His professional work also includes performing as a musician for ballet productions. He plays on a 1979 Mario Gadda cello of the Stefano Scarampella model, made in Mantua, Italy—an instrument known for its rich and powerful tone.

Outside of music, Timothy is a propulsion software engineer at SpaceX, where he works on the Raptor engine. He applies the same focus and discipline from his engineering work to his cello playing, delivering performances that are both reliable and expressive. When he is not at SpaceX, his time is devoted to his lifelong passion for music and the arts.
