<h3>About Brian Galvin</h3>
<p><a href="http://www.thestartupslingshot.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/Brian-Galvin.png"><img src="http://www.thestartupslingshot.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/Brian-Galvin-150x150.png" alt="" title="Brian Galvin" width="150" height="150" class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-159" /></a>One of the world&#8217;s few owners of both a 99th percentile GMAT score and an NBA championship ring, Brian would gladly help Charles Barkley (but not Karl Malone) achieve either. Upon graduation with a BBA from the University of Michigan&#8217;s Ross School of Business, Brian embarked on a quest to fulfill his childhood dreams of athletic glory, working for the University of Michigan Athletic Department, NYC 2012 Olympic Bid Committee, and Detroit Pistons. After winning (and we use that term loosely) the 2004 NBA championship with the Pistons, Brian turned his focus to earning a Master&#8217;s degree in education from Michigan and teaching Veritas Prep GMAT classes. </p>
<p>Seeking a more temperate climate to continue to train for marathons Ironman, Brian moved to Santa Monica in 2006 to serve as Director of Academic Programs for Veritas Prep. The co-author of several of Veritas Prep&#8217;s GMAT lessons, Brian oversees the instructor and curriculum development for Veritas Prep. He also serves as a featured expert and blogger on multiple GMAT and education websites and continues to teach GMAT classes in Los Angeles.<br />
