Entrepreneur / Private Investor / Operator
Dominic Dupré is the founder of Tule Creek Capital, a Gulf Coast investment firm focused on industrial and environmental services in the lower middle market. Raised in a family of successful entrepreneurs, he charted a path to build his own oilfield services company early in his career. The market had different plans. The lessons stayed.
What seemed like a dying dream led him to join the family business during a challenging time, where he led the turnaround of a failing business unit and stayed on as the company scaled and ultimately exited.
Today, he invests with an operator’s mindset, with a clear focus on culture, leadership, and continuity. Having been on the seller side, he approaches founders differently, more consultative, less transactional.
Although now based in Texas, his identity remains rooted in South Louisiana, shaped by his family and a lifelong connection to the outdoors.
