Learn how Geoff went from West Point, to the Army with a tour in Afghanistan, ultimately ending up at Haas after 7 years of service.Episode Quotes: On leaning on and learning from others - “You need to look at everyone in their potential...this really helped me see the impact that somebody can make by just believing in the people that work with them.”On choosing Haas - “And my boss at West point was a Haasie and he was one of the smartest, kindest, most humble people I'd ever met. And I was like, if this is the kind of person they're making it Haas. This is the place for me.”On getting involved as a student leader - “I've always felt a need to give before I take, and I get so much out of being at Haas. I tell people this all the time. It's genuinely the happiest I've ever been in my entire life. I can't think of a better way to give back to this community that's already done so much for me and will do so much for me for the rest of my life.”““Life is short and you should be as happy as possible.” -Geoff EasterlingRecommendation List:LinkedIn: Geoff EasterlingHow to Do Nothing by Jenny Odell Around the NFLDecode RecodeProfessor GSerialLooking for other stories of Haasies?
