Billings will continue in his executive management role and assume the newly created position of president. Billings will be responsible for all day-to-day activities of Wings Capital Partners.

In addition to the personnel changes, Wings Capital Partners’ existing shareholders, Corrum Capital and Sightway Capital, recently funded additional capital for the business.
