H@H: Ep. 33 – On the latest episode of Here@Haas, host Ray Guan is joined by Nick Bellamy, FTMBA ’21, to discuss Nick’s journey from the UK to New York to Haas. Nick then talks about his career journey, shifting from IBM consulting to various jobs and internships in the cannabis industry. Nick is also the president of the Berkeley Cannabis Industry Club (BCIC), and we discuss the club’s goals, annual career and social events, and roles MBA students typically look for in cannabis. Finally, Nick gives some hints about his future plans after graduation (hopefully before shelter-in-place ends).

Episode Quotes:

On how he realized his passion for cannabis: “If you can spend your weekends willingly reading and educating yourself on something, that’s a great sign.”

On the goals of BCIC: “We want to help people. We don’t have another agenda; we just want to learn, to connect people, and we want to just educate ourselves and our members about cannabis.”

On advice for prospective students: “[Don’t] figure out what works for other people, but figure out what works for yourself.”
