Jacob Smith (Class of 2025) takes "non-traditional background" to a whole new level. He joined the workforce after high school, stocking grocery shelves at his local Florida Walmart. He rose up the ranks, becoming an assistant manager in his early 20s and running a store with $80 million annual revenue. He then joined the U.S. military, where he ended up leading HR wartime planning for all of South Korea. No matter who you are or where your path has led you, we hope Jacob's unique yet relatable story offers lessons, inspiration, and humor.
