Ever thought about how a simple love for cheese could unite a community? Join us as we chat with Josh Gonzalez, the innovative founder of the Cheese Club at Diablo Valley College, who transformed his passion for cheese into a unique gathering spot for fellow STEM enthusiasts. Josh takes us through his academic adventures, from struggling with programming to discovering his knack for robotics, culminating in the spontaneous creation of the Cheese Club. This isn't just about cheese; it's about building connections and fostering a sense of belonging among students and faculty who share a zest for life and, of course, cheese.
With over 100 attendees and counting, this quirky club has become a sensation on campus. Learn how Josh and his team navigate the logistics of sourcing cheeses and securing funding, all while maintaining the club's whimsical appeal. Beyond the slice of cheddar, the Cheese Club is a testament to the power of community spirit and collaboration. From cherished childhood trips to the French Marin Cheese Company to current gatherings, Josh's cheese-inspired journey is nothing short of inspiring. This episode promises laughter, community, and maybe even a cheesy pun or two.
