It’s late June, nine months into the first year at Khan Lab School, Khan’s educational R&D lab in Mountain View. At most schools, the students would be counting down the minutes until their summer vacation. But the Lab School eschews most of the traditional trappings of US education, including summer break.

Campaign Results. What's This About?
In April, I launched the most exciting campaign of my career. After a decade of working with high profile personalities and Fortune 500 brands, I applied what I learned about marketing and storytelling to build a campaign that would show Silicon Valley companies the value I would add to their teams.

I’ve worked on several high impact campaigns, and this is the most exciting one because it succeeded without a budget or a support team, proving that the success was completely tied to executing the foundations of marketing.
