Siya si Engineer Pompeii Nikolai Subingsubing, 27, tubong Cebu City. Nangarap noon siya noon na maging Accountant ngunit hindi niya ito natupad nang hindi siya nakapasa sa Accountancy Qualifying Exam. Dahil dito ay nadismaya si Pompeii, "Am I really that stupid? It made me question whether I would amount to anything much and if I was really never good enough."




Napagpasyahan ni Pompeii na mag-enroll si Pompeii ng Bachelor of Science in Mining Engineering sa Cebu Institute of Technology–University sa Cebu City. "My father chose this course. My inspiration has always been my family, especially my parents, who sacrificed everything in order for us to get a college education."

Naging maayos ang lahat para kay Pompeii at sa katunayan, magandaang kanyang academic performance, at naging dean’s lister pa sa unang term ng kanyang final year.





Nagtapos siya sa kanyang kurso taong 2017 sa edad na 22 bilang regular student at walang natanggap na award at Agosto 2017 nang kumuha siya ng board exam.

Sa wakas, Top 1 si Pompeii sa board exam at nakakuha siya ng rating na 90.9 percent.

"It was an unexpected success," ani ni Pompeii.
