SEVEN Talk by Ray Sawyer ’13: ‘Don’t Talk So Fast: My Southern Grandma’s Guide to Living’
Ray Sawyer ’13 delivered a SEVEN Talk at the 2025 Alumni Forum in Chapel Hill on October 19. Ray is the chief innovation officer at Primo Partners. About SEVEN Talks Every class of Morehead-Cain Scholars connects with seven others: the three classes ahead, its own, and the three that follow. The idea of SEVEN is to strengthen connections across generations of Morehead-Cains. The Alumni Forum embodies this spirit through SEVEN Talks —seven alumni and scholars on Saturday, and seven more on Sunday—each sharing seven minutes of wisdom with the Morehead-Cain community.
