Richard W. Huntsinger (Rick) formerly the Chief Operating Officer of Sunbelt of Mid-America is now an Associate Broker. Rick has a rich background in most aspects of business. He was a part of teams which built two different midsized multinationals in North America ultimately becoming President of both. He lived and worked in Europe and was Managing Director overseeing separate companies in France, Germany and the UK. His global assignments included Brazil where he learned many new ways to build and manage a company in an inflationary and revolutionary economy. After leaving the corporate world Rick and Susie, his wife of 30+ years, purchased a small business in Northwest Arkansas. The business quadrupled and became a bigger opportunity than they wished to undertake at that stage of their lives. Rick and Susie purchased and sold their business using Sunbelt of Mid-America special processes. During his career Rick's companies were bought or sold numerous times. Those experiences coupled with the Sunbelt processes he is learning allow him to contribute, as needed, to all activities of the company.
Rick has a Bachelor's Degree in Accounting and a MBA in Organization Behavior, both from the University of Missouri at Kansas City.
