Dreams do come true. Mike Peckham Jr. is the newest undergraduate to join the Class of 2025 at Harvard University. He's a self-made 18-year-old man in search of a career fashioned by mathematics and economics. Mike sits down with me in this podcast to discuss how he was able to achieve such a lofty goal of being accepted into the oldest and most prestigious school in America. Here’s a hint: It wasn’t because he is the son of a legacy or a senator or president. Nope, Mike did it the old-fashioned way. He earned it. We discussed the moment he learned of his acceptance, the man who inspired him, the mentor that guided him and what he sees for himself and America. Mike is a visionary and I suspect you are going to hear a lot about him in the future. He is a true leader.
The post DIP Episode #54: I’m Going to Harvard appeared first on Dr. Peter Percuoco.
