#182: Playing Ball with Mitch Harris, USNA ‘08

Service Academy Business Mastermind

“Nothing will ever feel as good as striking someone out in front of 40,000 people, but helping new clients realize what they can accomplish for their families with the financial resources they have and seeing the look of relief and amazement on their faces comes pretty close.”

- Mitchell Harris (USNA ‘08)

In this episode, we discuss:

• How Mitch balanced military service and a professional baseball career
• How the U.S. Naval Academy helped him realize his dream
• Transitioning between military service, professional baseball and a career in finance
• Why Mitch is passionate about being a financial advisor

We also discuss Mitch’s deployments with the U.S. Navy as a Surface Warfare Officer, how pitch practice on the flight deck made him a more accurate player, and how Mitch got back into baseball shape following his military service. We loved talking to Mitch about how he managed multiple career transitions and why he decided to become a financial advisor. It’s awesome to hear how he is leveraging the skills he gained in the military and professional baseball to help his clients succeed.
