Haleigh Daily Ep 3: Derek Hobbs of GradSpecs - Founder, Dad, Big-hearted NeuroNaut

On this Haleigh Daily Podcast, I’m joined by the brilliant and big-hearted Derek Hobbs, founder of Grad Specs — a purpose-driven data platform helping higher ed institutions make sense of graduate outcome data. Think: smarter decisions, cleaner data, and ultimately, better support for students as they launch into the real world.

This episode is totally unstructured (the best kind, right?). Derek graciously joined me for a flowing, spontaneous chat — the way we do things around here — and we dove into everything from data and software to human-centered design, purpose-led work, and how to bring clarity to the chaos of higher ed systems.

Huge thanks to Derek for showing up with curiosity, insight, and a willingness to ride the neurospicy wave. 🎢

Catch the convo and learn more about his work at gradspecs.com — especially if you're in the world of education, data, or software-for-good.
