My Story
John “Trey” Kailunas III, from E. Grand Rapids, MI, is an accomplished athlete. He has played lacrosse on the national and international stage for IMG Academy, and the University of Detroit Mercy, and the Latvian Men’s National Lacrosse team.
Throughout his athletic career, adversity was a common obstacle, and it encouraged his thirst for knowledge to create his ‘why’ and solve issues as he embraced corporate life. Majoring in Business Administration and minoring in leadership for his undergraduate studies at the University of Detroit Mercy, Trey has recently obtained a Masters in Management, Strategy, and Leadership from Michigan State University. He is now pursuing an MLS from Liberty.
Trey is the top performer on a leading Benefits software internal sales team, with a career-long goal of uniting the five generations of the workforce. He speaks with passion, confidence, and empathy for the younger workforce, while being true to his competitive nature and desire to succeed.
Trey has spoken at YPO (Young Presidents’ Organization) events and corporate national conferences regarding his unique perspective on facing adversity and understanding the “why” in life!
