Under his leadership, the company became a model of sustainability.  He currently serves at the Treasurer for The California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy. Beyond business, Mr. Luskin is celebrated for his philanthropy at UCLA. In 2011, he and his wife Renee donated $100 million to establish the Meyer and Renee Luskin School of Public Affairs, of which he serves as a Director, and the Luskin Conference Center. They have also supported initiatives in history, public policy and urban innovation. He was formerly chairman of the board of the Santa Monica – UCLA Medical Center and Orthopedic Hospital, Chairman of the Board of the Orthopedic Institute for Children (previously known as the Los Angeles Orthopedic Hospital, which is now the Luskin Orthopedic Institute for Children), a Director of the UCLA Foundation, and a Director of the Alliance for College-Ready Public Schools. Mr. Luskin is also the Founder of the Goodman/Luskin Center for Microbiome Research at UCLA.  Mr. Luskin also serves as a Director of OSI Systems, Inc., a vertically integrated designer and manufacturer of specialized electronic systems and components for critical applications in homeland security, healthcare, defense and aerospace. Mr. Luskin holds a Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of California, Los Angeles, and an MBA from Stanford University.  #### Doug Pak:  **Doug Pak** is the Founder, Owner, and Chief Executive Officer of BLD Ventures, a family-owned holding company with investments across restaurants, franchise operations, real estate, entertainment, and technology. Founded in 2005 with no outside capital, BLD Ventures began as a food and beverage startup and grew under Doug’s leadership from zero to more than $200 million in annual revenue and over 5,000 employees within eight years. That growth earned him the Franchise Times MVP Award for Mega Growth Leadership. Throughout his career, Doug has built, acquired, operated, and invested in businesses ranging from emerging ventures to established global restaurant brands – Papa John’s, Carl’s Jr./Hardee’s, Spaghetti Warehouse, Stir Crazy, and Flat Top Grill. He recently launched his own brand, Warehouse 72 Modern Restaurant & Bar and his latest venture is a new partnership with NFL star Maxx Crosby of the Las Vegas Raiders as well as investing in independent films.   Doug also brings deep experience in corporate finance, capital formation, joint ventures, and lower-middle-market mergers and acquisitions. He has directly led transactions ranging from $10 million to $100 million in value. Earlier in his career, he co-founded a technology company backed by angel investment and research and development funding from the National Research Council of Canada. A 1996 graduate of UCLA with a degree in Business and Economics, Doug has remained deeply connected to the university. He currently serves on two UCLA advisory boards and is a member of the UCLA Second Century Council. In 2022, he delivered the commencement address for the UCLA Department of Economics ([www.youtube.com/watch?v=8MG1uv4\_juw](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8MG1uv4_juw)). That commitment to education and giving back is also reflected in the Pak Family Endowed Speaker Series at UCLA, scheduled to launch in 2027, as well as his broader support of educational institutions, charities, and nonprofit organizations. Before expanding his service at UCLA, Doug served on the Pepperdine University board for seven years. Doug is also a founding member of a Vistage CEO Advisory Chapter in Orange County and has served on the boards of several private companies and nonprofit organizations. Doug lives in Newport Beach, California, with his wife and two children. Outside of business and philanthropy, he enjoys golf, travel, professional football, and journaling. ### sponsorship opportunities available We hope you will consider supporting our event, our alumni networks, and our student scholars! ### you can donate directly to our scholarship funds here [Asian Pacific Alumni Scholarship Fund](https://giving.ucla.edu/campaign/Donate.aspx?SiteNum=1&AutoFN=Y&Fund=90939E&Amount=100) [Kyra Goldfarb Scholarship Fund | Bruin Professionals](https://www.bruinprofessionals.com/kyra-goldfarb-scholarship-fund) ### [Asian Pacific Alumni of UCLA](https://alumni.ucla.edu/organizer/asian-pacific-alumni-of-ucla/) [View Organizer Website](https://alumni.ucla.edu/network/asian-pacific-alumni-of-ucla/) ### [Bruin Professionals Network](https://alumni.ucla.edu/organizer/bruin-professionals-network/) [View Organizer Website](https://alumni.ucla.edu/network/bruin-professionals-network/) Add to calendar * Google Calendar * iCalendar * Outlook 365 * Outlook Live
