"LEADERS are born, not made," is an axiom that may well describe the sterling career of Carlos "Sonny" Garcia Dominguez 3rd, a man of outstanding achievements and proven track record.
On Sept. 16, 1945, Sonny was born to a prominent Zamboangueño family residing in Metropolitan Davao, namely Carlos Dominguez Jr. and Virginia Garcia. His grandfather, Carlos Sr., was a Bank of the Philippine Islands branch manager in Zamboanga prior to World War 2. Sonny grew up in Metro Davao and studied at the Ateneo de Davao University where he was a classmate of President Rodrigo Roa Duterte (PRRD). Moving to Metro Manila, Sonny pursued his college degree at the Ateneo de Manila University (ADMU) where he graduated with a degree in Bachelor of Science in Economics in 1965. Then, he earned a Master in Business Administration from ADMU in 1969. Later, in 1982, he pursued further postgraduate studies in the United States where he completed the Executive Management Program from Stanford University's Graduate School of Business. He went on to marry Cynthia Andrews.
