Neil Turner is a 2003 graduate of Coppell High School and a graduate of the Coppell Teen Leadership program, predecessor of Teen Leadership Coppell.  Neil received his undergraduate degree in Management from Texas Tech University in 2007 and his Masters in Interdisciplinary Studies with a focus in Entrepreneurship & Real Estate Finance in 2009.  After earning his Masters degree, he worked in his field of study for Stone Advisors for a few years as a contractor of the FDIC overseeing approx 38 bank closures as he traveled the US.  He then worked to form a joint venture, GearingStone, and focused on the revamp of Dallas' Lower Greenville Avenue area.

Five years ago, Neil decided it was time to apply all of his studies and work experience and began working for and then later opening his own franchise stores of iFratelli's Pizza, under his partnership company, Thomas Carstens Holdings, LLC. Neil is a hometown success story and will be talking to our TLC grads about his experience thus far in life and why it's OK to take a different road than the one that you think you are destined to follow.
