Tre Jenkins, ’14, has had an exciting start to his career. A Rawlings Sport Business Management program graduate, Jenkins has worked with a variety of professional sports organizations, including the Golden State Warriors. His time there earned him invaluable experience as an account executive—and a 2017 championship ring.
Jenkins now works as a corporate partnerships executive for the Atlanta Falcons. A lifelong sports fan, Jenkins says he sometimes “feels like a kid” getting to do what he loves for a living and working for the top league in professional sports.
Jenkins chose Maryville because of the Sport Business Management program. He continues to give back and helps Maryville students when he’s able, speaking on classroom panels and serving as a connection for current students in the program. He helps them find internships and job opportunities in the industry.
In addition to his full-time work in the sports industry, Jenkins has a passion project in a different sector: real estate. He founded BEQUITY, a startup focused on real estate, raising private capital and giving back to the community. His hope is to be able to provide access for underrepresented communities to passively invest in assets, regardless of their individual net worth, through affordable initial investments.
