About

I am an entrepreneur, educator, and supply chain technologist with nearly 20 years of experience bridging the gap between advanced IT infrastructure and practical retail operations. My work, both in the field and in the classroom, is deeply focused on RFID applications in the supply chain and its use as a powerful signal for product authentication. Most recently, I founded and served as CEO of Vox Elements, LLC. I led the company from its initial launch through a period of sustained growth, culminating in a successful strategic acquisition by Temera SRL in February 2026. Following this exit, I launched Turri Strategic Partners to help other founders and established businesses navigate operational modernization, market expansion, and lucrative liquidity events. Over the course of my career, I have managed multinational teams to deploy RFID technologies across global retail footprints. By combining a hands-on background in programming, IT networks, and business intelligence with rigorous academic frameworks, I help organizations turn complex logistical challenges into highly valued, sellable assets.

Experience

  • Assistant Professor of Instruction at Texas State University
    Jan 2021 - Present · 5 yrs 6 mos

    As an Assistant Professor of Instruction, I teach senior-level Operations Management and Business Strategy. My primary goal is to move beyond standard textbook theory and help students grasp the true, gritty complexity of running, scaling, and ultimately exiting a modern organization. I bring my real-world experience as a successfully exited tech founder directly into the classroom. By integrating live case studies on supply chain modernization, advanced RFID implementation, and strategic market development, I prepare the next generation of founders and executives to navigate the operational challenges they will actually face in the field.

  • Owner and Principal Consultant at Turri Strategic Partners LLC
    Mar 2026 - Present · 4 mos

    Following the successful acquisition of my technology firm, Vox Elements, by Temera SRL in early 2026, I launched Turri Strategic Partners. The firm serves as a dual-purpose advisory group, bridging advanced, academically rigorous management frameworks with the practical reality of scaling and successfully exiting a business. My work is divided into two core focus areas: M&A Advisory & Exit Readiness: I partner with established business owners in the Central Texas innovation corridor to transform profitable companies into highly sellable assets. Through deep operational audits, supply chain modernization, and management restructuring, I build 12- to 18-month roadmaps that untangle founders from daily operations and maximize their valuation multiples prior to a liquidity event. Strategic Market & Partnership Development: In addition to exit consulting, I actively drive post-acquisition strategic management. Drawing on my background in IoT/RFID deployment and supply chain optimization, I focus on executing US market expansion strategies, structuring high-leverage B2B alliances, and guiding cross-border operational scaling following the Temera acquisition.
