Justin McKenzie

Justin doesn’t just think outside the box—he questions whether the box ever made sense to begin with. A lifelong entrepreneur and community strategist, he brings bold thinking, business acumen, and a deeply human approach to everything he touches.

With a career spanning industries and ventures, Justin’s throughline is transformation. Whether he’s scaling startups, consulting with mission-driven organizations, or rolling up his sleeves to solve a challenge in real-time, he operates with clarity, conviction, and a bias for action.

As Chief Operating Officer at Charity Ace, Justin helps shape the engine behind the mission—bringing sharp strategy and innovative structure to fuel long-term growth. He believes in business as a force for good, and shows up every day to prove what’s possible when purpose meets execution.

Based in Boerne, Texas, Justin also hosts The Building Texas Show—a podcast spotlighting the bold minds shaping the future of the Lone Star State. When he’s not building teams or building momentum, he’s out exploring, discovering new ideas, or connecting with the people who make it all worthwhile.
