Elijah May

Managing Partner & General Troublemaker, The Experience Firm

Austin

Elijah May is a veteran PR & marketing professional turned entrepreneur. Only after launching an entrepreneur network and interviewing dozens of successful Texas CEOs did he officially agree to become a partner in a startup of his own, and still it was a miserable failure. This prompted Elijah to take a deep dive into the science and philosophy of great business, reading dozens of books, examining countless case studies, and meeting with entrepreneurs from all walks of life. Now a public speaker, startup advisor, consulting company owner, and partner in a venture firm, Elijah specializes in helping companies create the clarity that is critical to their success.

Elijah attended the University of Southern California, where did his undergraduate work in human behavior and briefly pursued graduate studies in psychotherapy, before moving to Austin, TX. He is currently adjunct faculty at Austin Community College and a guest lecturer at the University of Texas.
