Description

Juggling work and school is a challenge in itself, and with the ongoing pandemic, it has only become harder. Kevin writes about the hardest moments of his experience as a working student in the time of COVID, and is a perfect example of what it means to be resilient amid tough times, in his essay, "Three letters after my name." Kevin's essay was published last January 12, 2021.  On this episode, we talk about the lessons he learned  at Graduate School, how he managed to succeed despite the hurdles and his advice for listeners who may be considering to juggle school and work. | Kevin Galvez earned his Master’s degree in Marketing Communications from the Ramon V. del Rosario College of Business,  De La Salle University (DLSU). He previously worked for a creative hub/coworking space in Makati as digital channels lead.  He now works as a freelance social media manager for international clients.
