Lynn Failing

Executive Vice President

Lynn began his career with Kimmel & Associates in the Waste Division in 1999, and he started the Supply Chain & Logistics Division later that same year. Before joining Kimmel, his early career in internal development culminated in working with the United Nations in the Middle East.

Lynn holds a BA in Telecommunications and Film from San Diego State University, an M. Phil in Early Church History from the University of Nottingham (U.K.), and an MBA from the Open University in the United Kingdom.

He is fascinated by logistics and supply chain, as they continue to evolve at an increasingly rapid pace.

Lynn and his wife, Donna, enjoy exploring new restaurants and gardening. He also enjoys time with his two sons, Aaron and Jason, and one daughter, Morwenna.
