John T. Edwards III MBA 28
I chose UC Davis for its collaborative community, diverse perspectives and opportunity to connect my Navy and operations experience with my goals in consulting, business analytics and project management.
The Graduate School of Management allows me to strengthen my financial and strategic thinking while learning alongside classmates with different backgrounds. Being close to my family in Sacramento also allows me to remain present as a husband and father. After four years advocating for veterans in higher education, I look forward to contributing that experience, supporting fellow students and building lasting connections.
