Dennis May
Advisory Board Member
Dennis has 30+ years of experience building and scaling multi-site, private equity backed, and publicly traded consumer retail and healthcare services businesses and leading companies through dynamic transformation and growth. Currently, Dennis is the CEO of Hopebridge, a leading, high-growth Autism Therapy Provider responsible for helping thousands of children achieve their best life possible. Under Dennis’s leadership since 2016, Hopebridge has expanded from 5 to 50 locations across the country bringing access to autism therapy to thousands of children in need.
Hopebridge’s rapid expansion is a product of Dennis’s deep experience and passion for helping companies build high performing teams and systems to navigate through dynamic growth. As a Board Member for Hopebridge and Skin Laundry, an advisor to 24-Hour Dental, and through strategic investments in various high-growth Healthcare and Consumer Businesses, Dennis has served as a mentor to businesses navigating complexities from early stage development to becoming a public entity. Prior to Hopebridge, Dennis served as CEO of consumer electronics retailer, hhgregg, which he grew from a family-owned local retailer with 18 locations to a public company with 227 locations and over $2 billion of revenue in 10 years.
Dennis’ passion for helping those in need and advancing clinical standards for autism therapy is evident through his project leadership and collaboration with the International Consortium for Health Outcome Measures (ICHOM). The project with ICHOM will leverage clinical data from Hopebridge and other leading Autism Therapy Providers to balance a comprehensive view of measurements for evaluating healthcare outcomes for children with autism spectrum disorders.
