Bow has worked with students and leaders in a wide range of industries across the US and abroad, from Fortune 500 companies and startups to nonprofits and government entities. His current interests — strategy, innovation, entrepreneurial leadership, emerging technology, and the theology of business and technology — are grounded in a conviction that well-governed enterprises can be powerful engines for both growth and social good. On campus, he sponsors IU charity: water and Blockchain@IU, advising student teams that apply philanthropy and advanced technologies to real-world challenges.
Beyond the university, Bow has a proven track record as a founder and operator. He created and led Clipper & Soul, concept to exit, leading the company through launch, brand development, and successful acquisition in 2019. Earlier, as part of the founding team at DistinXion, A Zeller Family Program, he helped design and scale programs that use sports and leadership development to positively influence youth and families. He also helped relaunch the Adidas Girls All-American Basketball Camp and remained involved with the program for nearly a decade.
Philanthropy and institutional advancement are integrated into Bow’s professional trajectory. At the Indiana University Foundation, he spent five years in regional development, cultivating key relationships and mobilizing resources to advance educational and community-focused initiatives. He also served as the founding full-time Athletic Director at Johnson University Florida, where he architected programs that aligned character formation, service, and athletic competitiveness with the institution’s mission and helped earn the first two banners in school history. Across these roles, Bow consistently blends entrepreneurial drive with a clear sense of purpose — leveraging business, education, and innovation to expand opportunity, strengthen organizations, and deliver enduring, positive impact.
