Welcome to the Career Design Talks Interview Series where I speak with successful professionals across industries to uncover their unique strategies and lessons learned on their journey to building a successful and fulfilling career.

If you have ever dreamed of working for the NFL or any other professional sports league or if you are a young professional looking to make a career change and are wondering how to do it then this interview is for you.

I had the pleasure of speaking with Dan Anyaegbunam, former college football player and attorney who currently works in football operations for the National Football League at their headquarters in New York City.

In this interview you will learn:

How being a college football player influenced Dan to go to law school.
How having professional mentors helped Dan broaden his view of what he could do with a law degree.
How Dan made the pivot from working as an Assistant District Attorney in Brooklyn to football operations in the NFL.
How pursuing his master’s degree in sports management helped Dan network his way into the NFL.
