Tim was born on May 22, 1962, in West Springfield, MA.  He began taking a tumbling class at age 10 and soon took up training in all the men's gymnastics events.  Daggett competed for UCLA, and in 1984 won team gold as a member of the US Olympic team.  A broken leg at the 1987 World Championships nearly ended his career, but he persevered and competed at both the 1988 US Championships and Olympic Trials.

Today, Daggett owns his own gym, Daggett's Gold Medal Gymnastics, in Agawam, MA, and also works as an NBC commentator.  He and his wife have two children.
