Raymond T. Hightower is a tech company founder and commercial real estate investor operating in the State of Arizona, USA. Growing a technology company for twenty-one years and ultimately selling it gave Hightower a boots-on-the-ground education in business execution and vanquishing obstacles.

Driven by a desire to improve the world through business, Hightower launched ROIClear (formerly BizDayGlobal), the video podcast where business leaders serve others by sharing knowledge. Hightower is active with the Boy Scouts of America where he teaches future leaders about budgeting and time management.
