With 20 years of leadership experience, Ty serves as President of G/O Corporation,
a leading distribution facility in Abita Springs, LA, that provides custom designed
PPE products for the nuclear power industry, the Department of Energy Nuclear Weapon
sites, shipyards and various industrial and pharmaceutical facilities. He says that
Southeastern was the only place he felt at home, and was one of the best decisions
he ever made. Ty currently lives in Covington with his wife Alyson and their two daughters..
After looking at several universities I chose Southeastern for their business program.
After touring the campus, I knew it was the right fit for me.
Outside of the business building is a beautiful spot where we would gather under the
oak trees. It is across the street from the football stadium, so that whole area reminds
me of my time at Southeastern.
All my business professors within the Southeastern business program were fantastic.
Yes, Marketing was my major and today along with my brother we own and operate a distribution
company that sells personal protective equipment.
The business program at Southeastern taught me to focus not only on the big picture,
but the small details. Southeastern gave me the business knowledge I needed to follow
my dreams and build a successful company.
I enjoy traveling for the company. I travel extensively around the country and see
new places and meet new people through the outside sales position. I enjoy meeting
with my customers to help them solve their problems.
Yes, Accounting was one of my weaknesses in business school, but my professors helped
complete those challenging classes. I am grateful for that because I use accounting
every day in our business.
I would tell them to wake up every day with the mindset that I want to strive to be
better and to do better. It sounds easy, but to get up every day and give it your
all is tough in a world that asks so much of us.
I enjoy being with my family and traveling with my wife and two girls. I also love
to fish, cook, and play golf in my spare time.
