Real-World Commerce
How Davis built real-world commerce experience long before college.
Davis was hands-on and entrepreneurial — but those instincts needed a real-world arena to become an application story.
Davis took on a warehouse internship that gave him a ground-level view of how products actually move — inventory, fulfillment, and the economics behind e-commerce.
He channeled it into DECA and founded a Shark Tank–style club, turning what he learned into a platform for other students.
Admissions officers can spot a business interest that lives only on paper. Davis's didn't — he had logged real hours, built a club, and could speak about commerce from experience.
That authenticity is exactly what we build toward: not more activities, but the right ones, taken seriously.
