Drew Myers

Co-Founder
Operating Partner

Warner A. “Drew” Myers is an entrepreneur, investor, and U.S. Marine Corps veteran based in Cincinnati, Ohio. Over the course of more than three decades, he has founded, built, and invested in businesses across industries ranging from workforce development to real estate, logistics, and aerospace. Today, he is Managing Director of Foxhole Equity, a mid-market private investment firm, and the co-founder of several operating companies where he focuses on building durable businesses, developing leaders, and investing in people.

Myers began his entrepreneurial career in 1998 when he founded RecruitMilitary, LLC, a military-to-civilian recruitment firm that became a national leader in connecting employers with veteran talent. RecruitMilitary produced media and offered a full suite of services to help employers across the United States attract and retain high-quality veteran employees. Under Myers’ leadership, the company grew
rapidly and earned a strong reputation for quality and mission-driven impact. In 2013, he sold the company to a private equity group.

Earlier in his career, Myers served as Vice President at Perot Investments, the family office of H. Ross Perot, and worked directly with Mr. Perot on an e-commerce business serving the military community. He also held senior sales and business development roles, gaining experience that would shape his future as a founder and investor.

After selling RecruitMilitary, Myers founded Quantico Summers, a private equity fund focused primarily on real estate investments. He later co-founded Foxhole Equity, a Cincinnati-based investment firm with holdings in both operating companies and real estate assets. Through Foxhole and affiliated partnerships, Myers has helped establish and grow several companies:

• brightSTAR Communities (founded 2019), an operator of manufactured housing and RV communities focused on delivering high-quality affordable housing in the Midwest and Southeast.

• Professional Pallets, a leading manufacturer and recycler of wood pallets, crating, and related logistics support, serving as a critical partner in the supply chain for regional and national customers.

• Diatom Capital, an aerospace services platform that includes three operating businesses and is actively pursuing additional acquisitions.

In addition to his business ventures, Myers is committed to community service and philanthropy. He actively supports military veterans in their transition to civilian life, mentors young adults as they navigate career and education decisions, and coaches emerging entrepreneurs. Together with his wife, he advances charitable giving through the Drew and Kim Myers Family Charitable Fund, which supports organizations including Back2Back Ministries and Summit Country Day School. Myers is also active in investor and leadership communities such as Tiger 21.

Myers’ career is rooted in his service in the United States Marine Corps. Upon graduating from Indiana University in 1986, he attended The Basic School, an infantry-focused six-month school for new officers, finishing in the top 10 percent of his class. He went on to serve as a platoon commander and later as executive officer of a 150-man artillery unit, with assignments both stateside and overseas. Myers was also selected as aide-de-camp to Brigadier General Ron Christmas. Ranked among the top three lieutenants in the First Marine Division, he was augmented into the regular Marine Corps in 1990. During his service, he also completed a three-year tour on recruiting duty, consistently ranked first among his peers, and earned the Navy Achievement Medal, Navy Commendation Medal, and initiation into the Honorable Order of Saint Barbara. He left the Marine Corps at the rank of captain.

Myers holds a BA from Indiana University and an MBA from Xavier University. At Indiana, he was president of the Kappa Sigma fraternity while also working several jobs to help fund his education. Away from his business and philanthropic work, Myers values family, travel, and outdoor activities. He and his wife Kim, a retired forensic psychologist, live in a recently remodeled firehouse in downtown Cincinnati. They have two adult children: Simon, an asset manager at a Cincinnati-based real estate firm, and Zoe, a technical designer for a fashion brand in New York City.
