Tim McMahon
Chief Operating Officer

Tim comes from a long line of lumber people and calls his own career path “inevitable.” While in college, he spent his summers building pallets and crates and designing roof trusses. He earned his degree from UMD in 1990. Tim continued working in lumber, gaining experience in both production and sales on the wholesale side. He started with Forest Specialties in 2007. In 2010, he joined with Randy Bebeau and Bob Paulson to purchase the company. Tim’s approach to business has always been, “Take care of the customer and they will take care of you.” This approach has become part of the corporate culture at Forest Specialties. He has been instrumental in creating a team well-positioned for future growth. Tim and his wife Linda have two daughters, Allie and Maggie. They enjoy the sport of curling and going to their cabin in northern Wisconsin.
