Luke Holloway (’20) lives in Marshfield, WI. He graduated with a BBA in Business Management. He currently works for Wausau Supply Co. as the Vendor Strategy and Relations Manager. He says that “The MBU School of Business put me in a great position to succeed in my professional and personal life. I was able to gain a sound base knowledge of the world of business from the classroom, but also was able to earn valuable experience through an internship with the UW-Madison Athletic Department. The spiritual and life lessons that I heard from the likes of Mr. Steve Board and Dr. Jeff Drost, along with many others, were also great contributors to my development as a student and a person and in my walk with God.”
