After Harden, Little was CEO of Covenant Surgical Partners for over four years as the company experienced rapid growth.

Finally, Little has served on several healthcare service companies and numerous not for profit Boards.
Little began his career in commercial banking and spent 18 years in that industry. A native of Austin, he resides there with his wife of over 40 years, three married children, and six grandchildren.
