When you open your Feb. 7 issue of the St. Louis Business Journal, you may find a few familiar faces.  That’s because four UMSL alumni have been named to the 2014 “40 Under 40” class.

The annual list recognizes individuals in the St. Louis community who have made an impact in the business world before reaching the age of 40. More than 400 nominations were submitted this year.
