For Attaguile, this honor is more than a recognition. It is a full-circle moment shaped by family, purpose, and a college that helped him grow into the leader he is today.

During his time at the Rawls College, Attaguile served as a Rawls Ambassador and student assistant for Rawls Undergraduate Admissions, helping future Red Raiders feel welcomed, capable, and confident in their decision to call Texas Tech home.

As he prepares to begin his career in audit accounting, Attaguile credits the Rawls College, the Lyons School of Accounting, and the support of his family, friends, professors, and mentors for helping him discover his path and find his “why.”

Congratulations, Zach, on this well-deserved honor and for representing the Rawls College of Business at Spring 2026 Commencement.
