Jeremy G. Allen graduated from Lamar University with a B.B.A. in management information systems (2016) and an M.B.A. (2017). He obtained International Honors Certificates from USC Marshall School of Business (new product development) and UCLA Anderson School of Management (global entrepreneurship) in 2017.

While at Lamar University, through funded research examining the impact of small businesses and entrepreneurship on community development in transitional economies, Jeremy spent time under the guidance of the Panama Canal CEO in Panama, deputy secretary of state in Puerto Rico, Bairexport in Argentina, Port of Beaumont in Texas, and Center for International Private Enterprise in Washington, D.C.

These experiences led to his recognition as a 2015 Texas Business Hall of Fame Scholar, and were incorporated into his state contracted tutoring program for students with disabilities. Jeremy now lives in the Washington, D.C. metro-area with his wife, Myriam, and is serving on the staff of U.S. House of Representatives member and U.S. House-Senate Joint Economic Committee Chairman Don Beyer, Jr. In his spare time, he is preparing to be a first-time dad.
