Kyle Simmons is a passionate leader who has left behind a successful career in healthcare and management consulting to pursue a lifelong dream to own and operate a company that creates a positive impact on the world. He is strategic, thoughtful, innovative and likes to see what the world can be rather than what it is today.
He is looking to buy a company (or multiple) and infuse capital and commit all of his professional time and energy to grow it's impact and create value for customers, employees, and the community. Ideal companies are in the range of $1-10M EBITDA with a clear and demonstrated value proposition to their customers, a strong reputation in the community, and in an industry that is primed for growth or disruption.

They are CEOs of successful companies, industry thought leaders, acquirers of small businesses, and combined have made hundreds of investments across healthcare, technology, and a variety of other industries.
