Editor’s Note: Representing the chapter as Spotlight is Brian Bradley.

previously as graduate relations chair and treasurer. Meanwhile, he’s also
been involved on campus with Consult Your Community, GOALSoccer,
and as vice president of finance of the GT Interfraternity Council. From
the hometown of Roswell, GA, Brian will graduate this fall with a degree
in industrial and systems engineering, with a concentration in supply chain
engineering. Brian has prepared to work in his field with internships and
experience at PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, the Coca-Cola Company,
and Coca-Cola Refreshments. After graduation, he will be working for
McKinsey & Company. For fun, Brian enjoys following Atlanta United Lunch at 2016 FIJI Ekklesia with Thomas Henderlong,
