Jack Teitelman is a retired DEA supervisory special agent and the founder and CEO of TITAN Group. Upon retiring from the DEA, Jack saw increasing gaps in DEA compliance throughout the healthcare industry as America’s opioid epidemic continued to scale, which led him to draw on his three decades of expertise in government and controlled substance security to form TITAN Group. He currently resides in Randolph, New Jersey, with his wife and TITAN cofounder Sharon, along with their dog Travis and cat Lola.

Kelley Detweiler is the managing partner and chief operating officer of TITAN Group. In 2017, Kelley helped Jack and Sharon Teitelman cofound TITAN Group, merging her experience in packaging compliance and marketing with their vision to provide DEA compliance solutions to healthcare and veterinary professionals working with controlled substances. In addition to TITAN Group, Kelley helped launch Athletes for CARE, a not-for-profit organization that provides opioid-alternative healthcare solutions to professional athletes following a career in sports. Kelley currently resides in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, with her husband, two children, and tribe of dogs and bunnies.
