Background

About Lextin Willis

I’m a competitive builder—an entrepreneur, event leader, and sport business creative with a passion for innovation that fuels every project I pursue. I’ve founded or co-founded multiple ventures including CordPuck (trademarked), Unseen Worldwide, and Lex’s Pressure Pros, and I’m preparing to launch Trojan Cup—a new collegiate competition platform that provides experiential learning through a campus-wide sport competition. Across my ventures, I’ve won over in pitch competitions, sold to billion-dollar companies like Gordon Food Services, and pitched to major brands including Barilla and Caterpillar. Whether I’m organizing the most attended Shark Tank-style pitch competition in Taylor University history, leading employees through my own venture, or coordinating logistics for major events like the WNBA All-Star Weekend with the Indiana Sports Corp, I thrive in high-stakes environments where ideas must be both imaginative and executable at scale. From securing trademarks to co-founding platforms that support business-as-mission ventures, I’ve led across startups, athletics, and campus-wide initiatives. Currently, I serve as the Lead Intern for Taylor’s Center for Innovation and Entrepreneurship (CIE) and am a trusted leader on the track team—roles that reflect my drive to lead, compete, and build. Long-term, I’m pursuing opportunities at the intersection of sports and business, whether that’s with the NBA, a sport-focused startup, or launching a venture of my own—including my ultimate goal: starting a professional sports league. If it blends creativity, competition, and execution—I’m in.
