He serves on the Tuck School of Business (Dartmouth University) Advisory Board and the University of Michigan – Dearborn Dean’s Advisory Council. The Venegas rise from barrio to global entrepreneur is rooted in his desire to learn and his zeal to apply the lessons learned along the way. Frank committed early to his goals and believed he could achieve them and advises others to be likewise committed to their dreams. “If I told someone when I was young that I was going to have a $151 million-a-year business and do what we’ve done, most people probably would have said, ‘You can’t do it,’ and would have tried to talk me out of it,” he says. “But if it’s inside your heart and if that’s what you want, you should go do it.”
