MY CAREER STORY Part 1: Early Years, Tra...

HALEY HOFFMAN SMITH
About this episode

I've been asked time and time again how I got to where I am currently in my career - which is a story I can never answer in a succinct way. My long & winding career story starts with my little dream of being a talk show host when I was in elementary school, and unfolds in a story with many chapters. This is Part 1 - everything up to my college graduation, including how I started my international nonprofit & transferred to Brown University.
