Hybrid Talk: “They Call Me Pathfinder” with Mark Epstein

The True Story of One Man’s Mission to Improve Education in South Carolina
Mark Epstein’s father started calling him “Pathfinder” when he was 10 years old.  The unusual nickname came from the Pathfinder sleeping bags he sold in his Charlie’s Surplus sporting goods store in Worcester. It took Mark a while to grow into the moniker.  As a kid, he had dreams of playing basketball, but his lack of motivation sidelined him. Later, a divorce sent him south to Charleston, SC, without a plan. While struggling to put his life back together, he found his path as an educator, school counselor, basketball coach and advocate for equality. He also helped the students he coached find meaning in life and change for the better. While he has befriended some of the greatest athletes in history, the students and parents he met in the public school system  have been the celebrities in his life. If you don’t believe one person can make a difference.  It’s time to read this book.
