The collective SaaS and Healthcare Marketing talent of our employees makes all the difference when building the greatest Healthcare Marketing Platform out there.
SocialClimb Leadership
Ty has dedicated over two decades to building marketing technology companies. His experience as a patient with a spinal cord injury in 2014, and the long recovery that followed, led him to founding SocialClimb—a business seeking to improve healthcare marketing. Notably, SocialClimb is Ty’s first company to specialize in the healthcare vertical.
Bridging the gap between people and systems for innovative problem-solving is Ty’s key to successful technology businesses. The SocialClimb team maintains open communication and integration in the healthcare space, driving the company’s success.
Ty is outnumbered and frequently outvoted by his wife, five daughters, and one granddaughter, most of whom live in Salt Lake City, Utah, and is grateful to have three sons-in-law. Ty enjoys biking, tennis, and golfing.

In his free time he enjoys riding dirtbikes and watching the Utes, Jazz, Broncos, and Yankees, but his favorite thing to do is spend time with his wife chasing their son, daughter, and two puppies.

Ben and his wife have one daughter and two sons, and they are on a quest to visit all of the national parks in the United States. Ben loves music, especially live music. He keeps tarantulas, which is NOT a crazy person hobby, and he drinks entirely too much Mountain Dew.
