Willis is the CEO of Cantey Tech, an IT support and security company working in 16 states. Ages ago, he graduated from Sewanee and received his international MBA from USC. Then he worked in Panama, Argentina, and New York before moving to Charleston. He is the former Chairman of the Board of the Charleston Metro Chamber of Commerce, current Chair of South Carolina Independent Colleges and Universities, and Vice Chair of the Board of Trustees for the Historic Charleston Foundation. He’s been involved in other groups, but life is just too short to hear about people’s civic involvement all day.
Willis and his beautiful wife Susanne have two great kids. When he has free time he surfs, tries to catch fish, and drives all over the place for his son’s sailing regattas.
