Ryan Behringer

As a firm partner, I provide assurance and advisory services to privately held and private equity-backed businesses, primarily in the service and for-profit healthcare industries. I work closely with private equity sponsors and their portfolio companies, helping them navigate growth, acquisitions, and the complexities that come with an evolving business environment. With nearly two decades in the industry, I have extensive experience advising clients on complex accounting and financial reporting matters, including business combinations, debt and equity transactions, share-based compensation, and other transaction-related issues. My focus is on helping clients work through challenges efficiently so they can stay focused on running and growing their business.

As a member of our Texas private equity team, I’m actively involved in industry conferences, networking events, and relationship-building opportunities. I enjoy connecting clients and prospects with the right people across the firm and helping them access the specialized expertise needed to achieve their goals. Clients appreciate my responsiveness, practical advice, and commitment to understanding their business.

Around the firm, I'm known as a connector who rarely turns down an opportunity to meet someone new. Whether attending a conference, introducing clients to colleagues, or helping build relationships across the marketplace, I enjoy bringing people together and creating meaningful connections that benefit our clients, our people, and our communities.

I received a B.S. in accountancy and M.S. in finance from the University of Michigan-Dearborn. I’m a member of the AICPA and Michigan Association of CPAs.

Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my wife, Lauren, and our three sons, Beckett, Emerson, and Declan. I’m actively involved in coaching youth sports and enjoy golfing when time permits.
