Lev Tsypin

Founder, CEO

Lev co-founded ThinkShout with the goal of bringing digital tools and strategy to organizations working to create lasting, positive change in the world. He believes that business can be a force for good in society, and strives for ThinkShout to reflect that ideal.

In addition to helming a team of incredibly talented individuals, Lev endeavours to keep ThinkShout on the cutting-edge of open source technology, and contribute back ThinkShout’s own time and expertise to the community. Lev began his career in software development as a consultant with Computer Sciences Corporation, saving us all from the Y2K apocalypse, and Inforte Corporation in Chicago before moving to Portland and serving as the Director of Programming at Pop Art, Inc. After spending a year abroad reconnecting with the world and his values, Lev started Level Online Strategy, which shared ThinkShout’s commitment to working with clients who make a positive impact on the world. Lev holds a bachelor's degree in business administration (BBA) and political science from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. He spends his off hours chasing after his two boys in the great outdoors that many ThinkShout clients strive to protect.
