Title: Immersion Therapy
Bio: Tim Handren is a native Texan, born in Amarillo and raised in Lubbock. He moved to San Antonio in 1986 to work at USAA, where he built a 21-year career. Most recently, he served as CEO of Santikos Theatres before retiring after six years at the helm. Married to his wife Anne for nearly 33 years, they share a love of travel—having visited 60 countries and all seven continents. Though birds were just a blur in the background for much of that journey, Tim found his true focus in 2024, launching into birding with full heart and binoculars in hand.
Meetings are held quarterly.
