25: Dan O'Hara & Leaving Education to Craft Beer

Dan O'Hara is an Associate Director of Residence Life at Champlain College...for now. Dan is on his way of education after a decade in the field. In this chat, we dig into Dan's experience as a truly authentic and tattooed professional. We also get into the next step of Dan's of life - working in a craft brewery in Burlington, Vermont! Dan is PSYCHED for his new life outside of education, but that's doesn't mean he is leaving easily - there's a lot that he's gonna miss. We hope you like this chat and that it sheds some light on why folks leave the field and what it looks like to find a new passion later in life!
