Dan's Story
Workplace
After John Hancock stint, went fishing. Literally. I became a Charter Boat Captain, owner/operator of my life's dream. "Purrsuasion" was her name. A 48ft Custom Carolina flare bow sportfisherman. Took parties of up to 6 out to the Gulfstream off the North Carolina Coast, for Blue Marlin, White Marlin, Sailfish, Dolphin fish (mahi), Wahoo, Yellowfin Tuna, etc. etc. What a life. But alas $$ troubles in the early '90's took it's toll. I sold out for that thing called; "Security". Moved back to CT, began a career at 42, with the CT Dept of Correction. I finished my career, retiring in Dec. 2013. I went back to school in the fall of 2007, in an online course sponsored by Boston University in their Masters of Criminal Justice department. I graduated from the BU Master's program in May of 2010. Since 2011 I have been working for the same program at BU as a Graduate level online Facilitator (Teaching Assistant).
Love the work & since it's an online program I continue to stay involve...Expand for more
