Top SchoolAdam Kerpelman is a multidisciplinary technologist, entrepreneur, and legal-trained academic who blends product, marketing, and generative AI expertise to help organizations build and tell better stories. As an Assistant Professor at UVA McIntire and founder of Marketing Machine and Juris, he translates startup experience—spanning legaltech, mental health, and media production—into research and classroom practice focused on AI in business and content production. A former competitive swimmer turned coach who trained alongside Olympians, he brings a performance-obsessed mindset to team building, process design, and growth marketing. His background in filmmaking, photography, and entertainment law uniquely frames his approach to creative technology and intellectual property challenges.
