Timothy Doyle, who has led the Research Department for New England Business Media since 2019, has joined the Worcester Business Journal newsroom as a staff writer in charge of the real estate and higher education beats.
"Around WBJ, we call Tim the most interesting man in the world," WBJ Editor Brad Kane said. "A native of Millbury, Tim's varied career has included serving as a interrogator in Afghanistan for the U.S. Army, acting as wedding registrar to the rich and famous at Bergdorf Goodman in New York City, working at Museum of Fine Arts in Boston and the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York City, and creating his own art at his studio in Whitinsville."
Doyle first joined WBJ's parent company New England Business Media as the lead researcher for the Research Department, which is responsible for producing nearly 200 lists annually on companies and industries for WBJ, Hartford Business Journal, Mainebiz, and New Haven Biz.
He has been transitioning out to the Research Department and into the WBJ newsroom over the course of June and has already broke several high-interest news stories, including:
- O’Connor’s Restaurant to be sold, as long-time owners to retire
- Another Central Mass. Starbucks unionizes, this time in Gardner
- Digital Federal Credit Union names new president and CEO
Doyle's transition into the newsroom was completed on Wednesday.
“I am very happy to be reporting on business in my native Central Massachusetts. It is such a dynamic time in the area, which will have its share of triumphs and also complications, making for potentially fascinating stories,” said Doyle.
Before joining NEBM, Doyle worked at auction startup Everything But The House, handling client relations and working with estates. He lives in Worcester and also works as an artist, specializing in oil paintings of architecture and cityscapes. His works have been displayed locally at ArtsWorcester and Sprinkler Factory. In 2014, he graduated with a bachelor’s degree in art history from the University of Arizona.
From 2009 to 2011, Doyle served as a human intelligence collector for the U.S. Army, and he was deployed in support of Operation Enduring Freedom in Afghanistan. He received the Army Commendation Medal, Joint Service Achievement Medal and Army Achievement Medal.
