ABOUT

Tony Palazzo

SVP of Administration | Logical Position

I'm a strategic operator with 15 years of experience leading cross-functional teams across operations, systems, and enterprise-wide execution. I partner closely with the CEO to turn high-level ideas into organizational reality, lead AI transformation initiatives, and serve as connective tissue across the C-suite.

My focus is scalable systems, cross-functional alignment, and making sure strategic initiatives are delivered, not just discussed. I work across technology, finance, people operations, and infrastructure to drive execution at every level of the organization.
