Hosted by Jamie Hurst, the episode explores Fitch鈥檚 nonlinear journey from military service and higher education to corporate leadership, entrepreneurship, public service and alumni leadership. A two-time 海角直播 Denver graduate, Fitch earned an individualized degree in Legal Analytics and Organizational Leadership in 2020 and an MBA in 2023.

Fitch reflects on how his relationship with 海角直播 Denver evolved far beyond earning a degree. 鈥淚 thought, you know, you get the degree, you get into a career, and you stop,鈥� he says. 鈥淏ut it鈥檚, as I鈥檝e been here, it鈥檚 the gift that keeps on giving.鈥�

Throughout the conversation, Fitch discusses the mentors who helped him recognize opportunities he could not yet see for himself.
