Bonus Episode: Berkeley Course Instructor at 19 & LinkedIn Top Voice with Julian Gamboa

Work In Progress

When you see a wall in front of you, you have 3 options: 1. Turn around and go back in the direction you came. 2. Break it down. 3. Walk around it. Julian Gambao's story is a perfect representation of what can happen when you choose to take a creative approach to a big life problem. From a young age, he was inspired by Coca Cola's impeccable advertising campaigns and knew advertising would be his career path. He put in all the necessary work and attended one of the top universities in the country, Berkeley. After 2 years at Berkeley, Julian applied to the Walter A. Haas School of Business. Suddenly, Julian had faced a massive wall. He was denied from the business school. Suddenly, his plan to study marketing at Berkeley was ruined. Julian was at a crossroads. Would he have to leave Berkeley (a school he had worked hard for his entire life to get into)? Julian decided to walk around the wall and majored in American Studies with a thesis in Marketing. What's even better: he went back to the same business school in which he was denied and decided to run his own marketing course that was open to students from all majors.
