Prior to Rock Dental, Tripp worked with Michael at Geode Health, acquiring the core founding practices of this KKR-backed mental health venture. Prior to Geode, Tripp also worked with Michael at Southern Veterinary Partners, where he immediately made a huge impact, establishing and expanding a highly-productive outreach effort - identifying, qualifying and building relationships with high-priority Seller practices. Tripp graduated from Auburn University as well as Highlands College. He lives in Birmingham, Alabama with his wife and two young girls and is more than likely watching Winnie the Pooh, again, as you read this.
