About Ron

Ronald L. Hollis, Ph.D.

Serial Entrepreneur SaaS Expert 3D Print Pioneer Patented Inventor Author Ph.D. Engineering

Proven business leader with a focus on building great companies — from founding and scaling to successful exits.

Ron is currently the founder, President & CEO of MyCaseCare (mycasecare.com), a technology platform bridging communication between personal injury attorneys and their clients — tracking pain, documents, appointments, and case progress.

In 2022, he led the turnaround of MFG.com — a company that had raised and lost $80M — transforming it into a powerful manufacturing marketplace sold to Shapeways (NYSE: SHPW).

He is the founder and former President & CEO of Quickparts.com, Inc. — which revolutionized low-volume manufacturing, served 15,000+ customers with 300,000+ custom parts, and was acquired by 3D Systems (NYSE: DDD) in 2011.

He also leads FanBladz (fanbladz.com), supporting high school athletes.

With focused CEO skills, Ron exhibits strong, diverse capabilities in technology-based business, marketing, sales, and business systems. He applies focused passion, strong discipline, candor, and leadership to develop efficient, scalable operations.

His passion is building organizations that can profitably grow while developing leaders — both inside the organization and in the community.

"The core values I live by — serving the customer, being disciplined, and continuously improving — are applicable to business and to life."

He earned a BS in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Alabama, and a MS and Ph.D. in Engineering from the University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH). He is a Distinguished Alumni of the UAH School of Engineering and a non-practicing registered Professional Engineer.
