Had this episode's guest taken one road rather than the other, he might have ended up being the lead guitarist on Eye of the Tiger for the band Survivor.

Joe Wallace is truly one of the Valley’s most interesting men. Currently the CEO and Chief Innovation Officer at the Coachella Valley Economic Partnership, Joe has come a long way since his upbringing in the home of the General Lee, Hazard County, Kentucky.

From a town of less than 2000 to eventually graduating from Stanford, Joe has a fascinating background. Joe went from being a part of the early, glory days of Silicon Valley, to his role helping this valley grow and survive from an economic standpoint.
