Do you work to live, or live to work? It's an important question many of us ignore ... but not this week's guest, David Connell, who has crafted a successful career in digital communications while managing to be crystal clear about his personal and professional priorities (hint: David knows how to unplug after a productive day to spend time with his wife and two sons). As for choosing his working path, says David, "my generation was never expected to pick a career before college - that's when we were supposed to start figuring that out!" Still, David had the presence of mind to pursue a liberal arts education that helped him learn to communicate and think critically, and he used those skills to pursue writing and eventually web design and content development opportunities. Now a director, David shapes the Urban Institute's digital communications strategy and leads a team to execute that strategy. Hear more about David's career journey, the four paths to pursue a digital communications career, and, as a bonus, a little-known novel David might one day publish!
