Post by University of California, Irvine - The Paul Merage School of Business

Peter Gray Flex MBA'26 made an easy choice to enroll at UC Irvine after moving to Orange County from the UK in 2022. 🇬🇧 Wanting to deepen his roots in community and establish his network, the Merage School's design around working professionals and focus on technology really stood out. Peter's favorite Merage moments include working with his teammates on real business projects and the three residentials (Opening, International - South Korea and Closing), creating special connections with the 26-C cohort and faculty that he will cherish forever. His plan post-graduation is to continue developing in his role managing the Western U.S. region for Villeroy & Boch Group and use the skills he learned to support growth and digitalization. Being a member of the LGBTQ+ community and ROMBA fellow has had a huge impact on his MBA experience from start to finish socially, academically and professionally. Moving to California to be with his husband, Peter has felt accepted for his openness and rewarded by the connections he's formed while representing the School on a local and national level. 🫶 #UCIMerage #MeragePride
