Prior to joining Bluewater, Mr. Willox served as the Executive Vice President of Operations at Critical Information Network, where over the last several years he played a chief role in leading the company through an acquisition, re-branding, restructuring and growth plan that has successfully doubled revenues, reduced expense, and re-positioned the company as a leading on-line video-based training content provider.

Mr. Willox identified, positioned, and presented the CiNet acquisition opportunity, assembling the leadership team to acquire Primedia Workplace Learning’s 200,000 sq. ft. television studio assets, extensive 10,000 course training video library, existing customer base and revenue.
