Our Team
Our Philosophy
Praxium is built by operators. We believe leadership is earned through execution, judgment, and trust.
Founder & Managing Partner
Taron Ragan
Taron Ragan is the Founder and Managing Partner of Praxium — an operator-led financial services and investment platform built for companies navigating complexity at every stage of growth.
From pre-revenue startups to middle market businesses, Taron partners directly with founders and leadership teams to install the financial and operating systems that stabilize companies during inflection points and prepare them for disciplined, sustainable scale. His work goes beyond bookkeeping and reporting. He builds forecasting infrastructure, capital strategy, and operating cadence that turn ambition into predictable execution.
Before founding Praxium, Taron held financial leadership roles at Microsoft, Deloitte, and UPS, served as CFO for multiple privately held companies across technology, consumer products, and healthcare, and operated as an Operating Partner at Infrastructure Growth Partners — working alongside founders and investors to drive early value creation and strengthen operational foundations.
Across these roles, one pattern became clear: companies don’t struggle because of a lack of vision — they struggle because growth exposes weak financial systems.
Praxium was built to solve that problem.
Chief Operating Officer
Deja Ragan
Deja Ragan is the Chief Operating Officer of Praxium, responsible for the operational infrastructure that powers consistent client delivery and firm-wide execution.
Before Praxium, Deja led as a Claims Team Manager at State Farm — managing a hybrid team of 17, building performance governance frameworks, and directing process initiatives across a regulated, audit-driven environment. She holds the CPCU designation and a BBA in Management from Kennesaw State University's Coles College of Business, where she competed as a Division I student-athlete.
At Praxium, she oversees onboarding, client lifecycle coordination, and the internal systems that keep every engagement structured, compliant, and professionally executed — so clients experience financial leadership that is not just expert, but seamless.
