Heather Gee-Thomas

Founding Partner at G Squared Wireless

Heather Gee-Thomas, from a young age, had an entrepreneurial spirit, earning money by teaching dance classes in her parents’ home at the age of 13. Her love of creating new ventures, coupled with her passion for social justice, has led her into developing programs that support those society all too often marginalizes. Heather has also served on multiple boards in Middle Tennessee, one to eliminate bullying in the public school system — a passion close to her heart. Another to provide community input for safe and respectful care of LGBTQ patients in a large Nashville hospital/medical network.

Heather earned a B.A. in business administration/marketing at The University of Tennessee’s Haslam College of Business. She spent much of her early career working for Fortune 500 companies in Enterprise Sales, which she credits with providing a valuable training ground for executive leadership. However, her passion to advance the rights of others left her wanting more. In 2005, after recognizing a gap in support services for the evolving mobility industry, Heather and longtime friend Diane Gentle McDaniel founded G Squared Wireless. They shared the belief that providing a happy, fun, mutually respectful work environment along with a “best in class” product were the key ingredients to feed their appetite for success in their business, while recognizing the talent they brought alongside them was imperative in driving best practices in all that they do at G Squared.

Outside of work, Heather enjoys Nashville Predators Hockey, camping with her family and working on indoor/outdoor projects at home with her husband Johnny.
