Lee Midkiff
Founder and Managing Partner
Lee founded Bunnell Hill Partners to give growing businesses the senior operating leadership they usually cannot justify hiring full time. He has held CEO, COO and CFO seats across software, legal services, financial technology, insurance distribution and insurtech, and franchise systems.
