Michael Gauthier

I could not verify a public biography, LinkedIn profile, headshot, title, education history, startup-investing record, or current team-page listing for Michael Gauthier from the public web sources reviewed. The email domain in the stub, `sim-llc.com`, resolves to Strategic Income Management LLC, but the firm's current public team page does not list Michael Gauthier.

Strategic Income Management LLC describes itself as an independent, 100% employee-owned investment firm founded in 2010 and based in Seattle. The firm says it manages a high-yield strategy, had approximately $2.9 billion in firmwide AUM in that strategy as of March 31, 2025, and serves institutional customers including public pension funds, insurance companies, a U.S. '40 Act mutual fund sub-advisory mandate, and a UCITS fund.

• I found no public, person-specific angel-investing thesis, seed-stage mandate, check-size range, or startup portfolio for Michael Gauthier.
• The only verifiable investment focus tied to the supplied email domain is Strategic Income Management's high-yield fixed-income strategy.
• Strategic Income Management describes its approach as “high conviction, index agnostic & counter cyclical.”
• The firm says it specializes in high-yield fixed income and emphasizes rigorous fundamental research, durable industries, opportunistic out-of-favor investments, and disciplined risk management.
