One of Georgia’s most loyal supporters, lifelong Bulldog fan John Parker, is one of the University’s most distinguished alumni. A graduate of Georgia, Parker coached high school football and basketball and taught. He then made a dramatic career change and went to law school at the age of 32.
Parker rose through the ranks at Coca-Cola, and in 2008 was named General Counsel and Senior Vice President. He had previously served as General Counsel to Coca-Cola Enterprises and CC’s European Group.
His father Reid Parker was a Professor of Forestry at Georgia, the faculty representative for the Athletic Association and the Director of Athletics.
