Episode 12: Musical Engineering (ft. Paul Vallejo)
from The Chicken Nugget Day Podcast · host Justin Cellini
On this week's show, I sat down with a former student of mine from the one year I taught at Harborfields High School in Greenlawn, NY. Paul Vallejo is the guitarist of the band Pinkshift, and he is currently finishing up his Master's in Chemical Engineering at Johns Hopkins University in Maryland. In this episode, you will learn how Paul got started playing the guitar and hear all about his musical journey while also navigating the rigors of his academic studies. You'll probably as inspired as I have been after having listened to Paul attacks life.
