On this episode of Alumni Direct's show "ATHLETES TO ENTREPRENEURS: The Alumni Journey," we talk to Samuel Barrington, former NFL player and the President of Sky Limit Crane & Rigging.
On learning the ins and outs of networking:
"My first few years out of the NFL, every networking event that was had...I was making sure I was there front and center. And I think what I gained from those events, beyond anything, was understanding how to communicate with professionals."
Samuel's advice to student athletes:
"Run your own race. You've got time. Forget about the external validation. Find out who you are and surround yourself with likeminded people. Enjoy the process, because you're never going to be a 22 year old with no responsibilities again."
