Timothy J. Kelly
Tim founded Strong Tower Media after nearly two decades in Los Angeles, where he served as Director of Production and partner at VOX DJs from 2016 to 2025, running production for events of all sizes.
In 2025 he came home to New Jersey to build something local: independent films made here, screenings that bring people out, and a production company that local filmmakers and businesses can count on.
The name comes from the Kelly family motto, Turris fortis mihi Deus, "God is my strong tower." The crest is drawn from the O'Kelly coat of arms: two lions hold up the tower, and the chains that hang from it are reimagined as film.
